MIT Predictive Multiscale Materials Design Short Course - June 1-5, 2020

[Borislava Stoyanova]

Dear Postdocs:

Below is information about a short course being offered at MIT this summer that covers “Predictive Multiscale Materials Design” (http://professional.mit.edu/programs/short-programs/multiscale-materials-design, June 1-5, 2020).

Eligible MIT postdoctoral associates and staff can attend using the Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) and you will earn an MIT certificate!  It’s a really fun course and it gets rave reviews from participants every year. Watch this video about the course: https://youtu.be/pCiCBBmHBMY

MIT Predictive Multiscale Materials Design Short Course

Location: MIT campus, Cambridge, MA, USA
Dates: June 1-5, 2020
Watch this video about the course: https://youtu.be/pCiCBBmHBMY
Questions: email mbuehler at MIT.EDU<mailto:mbuehler at MIT.EDU>

Registration is now open at http://professional.mit.edu/programs/short-programs/multiscale-materials-design. Participants will receive an MIT certificate following the one-week course.

ABOUT THE COURSE:  A one-week boot camp at MIT, to learn the basics of multiscale modeling, AI/ML, additive manufacturing and materials design, with lab sessions and a strong focus on real-world applications. New this year, lectures about machine learning and artificial intelligence in materials design, expanded lab sessions to cover multiple 3D printing methods, and hands-on ML/AI computer labs.

Computational methods including AI is revolutionizing the materials design world. Today, an engineer or scientist can simply enter the desired properties into a program and the system will manufacture a microstructure that matches the specifications.  Algorithms predict which chemical building blocks can be combined to create advanced materials with superior functions — from ultra-strong, lightweight materials used in the automotive, construction and aerospace industries, to biomaterials used in implants and biomedical devices with the ability to self-heal and regenerate. The goal of this new approach is to construct, in a bottom-up manner, atomically-precise products through the use of molecular design and manufacturing, allowing the fabrication a vast array of designs.

Participants will spend a week at MIT and immerse themselves in interactive lectures, labs and networking with other participants.
