Steve and Tim talk with Dr. Ellen Solomon, one of the program managers of the Multidisciplinary Design Program (MDP) at the University of Michigan.  Ellen graduated with an MS&E degree from Michigan and worked in industry before coming back to Michigan to run the research program side of MDP.  She talked to us about this very unique program that incorporates not only research projects, but projects from industry as well.  About Ellen:  https://mdp.engin.umich.edu/staff/ellen-solomon/UM MDP: https://mdp.engin.umich.eduUM MDP research projects for 2025: https://mdp.engin.umich.edu/all-projects/?_project_type=research_teamsUM MDP industry projects for 2025: https://mdp.engin.umich.edu/all-projects/?_project_type=sponsor_teamsThere are still openings to join MDP industry teams in 2025!  Axalta, PPG, and Donaldson are recruiting MSE students to join these projects.  Please reach out to [email protected] with your interest and submit an application to the waitlistYou can find the YouTube video here:https://youtu.be/9KSnHQ0nXCM?si=3zejkDKUuUC77pAqThis episode is sponsored by the North American Materials Education Symposium (https://java.engin.umich.edu/NAMES24/) a gift from Prof. Ron Gibala, and the University of Michigan Materials Science and Engineering department (https://mse.engin.umich.edu).
