Engineering Solutions | Educating Engineers
Keweenaw Research Center solves engineering problems. We provide our clients with the best possible solutions to their toughest problems at a reasonable cost.
For over half a century, we have helped our industrial clients provide reliable, durable products that enhance performance and customer safety, from anti-lock brakes and high-traction winter tires to improved stability controls. KRC is proud to be a longtime research partner with the US Army. Most recently, our engineers have developed counter-mine technologies that protect American troops in the field.
We have a solid track of service, but we aspire to do more. We need twenty-first century facilities to provide the best twenty-first century engineering.
KRC Research Areas

KRC has never been fancy. We have always been proud of what we could accomplish in a bare-bones facility. Now, however, we are outgrowing our Quonset huts. To keep up with our clients’ needs for quality applied research, we are embarking on a major, two-part expansion.
In Phase I, we are adding a $2-million, 11,000-square-foot Engineering Design Center. It will house three new facilities where student engineers will work on military and industry projects.
Through your tax-deductible donation, you can help the Keweenaw Research Center continue to do great research and educate great engineers.
