Post Graduation Plan
Working in partnership with 5 university partners and over 80 industry partners, CPES has built a synergistic multidisciplinary research program over the 10-year NSF ERC program.
As the Center approached graduation from NSF, CPES began to prepare a Post-Graduation Plan to guide our future efforts, proposing to maintain a sufficient level of core funding after graduation through a combination of industry consortium support, sponsored research, university cost-share, and some continued NSF funding for education and outreach initiatives.
