Request for Proposals: Advanced Materials MTRAC
The Michigan Translational Research and Commercialization (MTRAC) program has opened a request for proposals for the upcoming 2022 year cycle.
The mission of the MTRAC Innovation Hub at Michigan Tech is to advance materials-based technologies that address poorly met market needs into commercial development. Examples of desirable translational research goals and outcomes include achieving specific milestones on the path to commercializing systems, materials, processing technologies or devices which serve a well-documented market need.
Proposals may address demonstration projects, prototype development or process scale-up necessary to attract follow-on funding from third parties. Michigan Tech welcomes projects related to:
- Novel materials;
- Novel applications of conventional materials; and
- Equipment or processes that enable the application of either: A) novel materials, or B) conventional materials for novel purpose.
The proposal window closes at 5 p.m. March 31. For more information, please visit Michigan Tech's MTRAC web page or contact Nate Yenor at nryenor@mtu.edu.
