NOCMAT
Overview
Pitt-NOCMAT engages in cutting-edge engineering research and service-learning education involving sustainable, locally sourced, non-conventional materials adapted to lower technology production environments. Marginalized communities can adapt these materials for their own use with little working capital, less specialized education and minimal connection to global supply chains.
