Working across departments and disciplines, the Center for Innovation in Sustainability and Resilience (CISR, pronounced scissor) at Michigan Tech supports development of next-generation technologies and facilitates collaboration with partners, co-creating research and knowledge in ways that serve the stakeholders and communities we engage with through our work.
CISR is a research center within the Great Lakes Research Center Institute at Michigan Tech. CISR grew out of investments in the Tech Forward Initiative on Sustainability and Resilience. CISR works closely with these groups and with the Office of Sustainability and Resilience to grow Michigan Tech’s research leadership in the domains of sustainability & resilience innovations.
