The School is committed to our mission of fostering cutting-edge, human-centered interdisciplinary research; producing the next generation of leaders in M&S, and cultivating sustainable community partnerships. We welcome collaboration with those wanting to be at the forefront of innovation solving the world’s toughest challenges.

There are many ways we can work together with our partners whether the goal is to build your industry’s talent pipeline and help employ M&S graduates, offer internship and mentoring opportunities to students, or conduct research together.
