LETTER FROM THE DEPARTMENT HEAD

Dear friends, New Faculty: 03 I am very pleased to communicate with you again through Structure, the newsletter of MIT’s Department of Materials Academics: 06 Science and Engineering (DMSE). This issue brings news of recent developments in DMSE and of the accomplishments of our faculty, staff, and students. As the Head of DMSE, I Honors: 08 have had the satisfaction of interacting with many of you as we have reshaped the intellectual and physical landscape of Transitions: 11 the Department over the past six years. With our major initiatives now coming to a successful conclusion, I feel ready to transition to the next phase with a stronger focus on some new research initiatives and exciting new global research alliances. I am pleased to note that Professor Ned Thomas will succeed me as Head of DMSE effective January 2006. Ned and I are working closely together to ensure a smooth transition to the next leadership team of the Department. = The major new initiatives we launched over the past sever- al years are now bearing fruit. The physical infrastructure of DMSE is significantly improved with thriving new laborato- ries for multi-disciplinary research and for undergraduate teaching in one of the most visible locations of the Institute: the Infinite Corridor. A number of additional laboratory facil- ities for research into new and emerging research areas have been built in the past four years in conjunction with the recruitment of highly talented young faculty colleagues. The final phase of the major space renovation project involving Subra Suresh, Head of the a “space swap” with the Physics Department is well under- Department of Materials way.
