Overview of facilities at University of Miami College of Engineering (UMCoE)

The University of Miami College of Engineering (UMCoE) is located on the UM Coral Gables, FL campus, a 230-acre suburban tract, just minutes from downtown Miami. The College is housed in the McArthur Engineering building, a 120,000-square-foot complex with state-of-the-art laboratories and facilities, which is comprised of five departments that offer BS, MS and PhD programs in Biomedical Engineering; Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering; Electrical and Computer Engineering; Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering; and Industrial Engineering. Accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS), UM has 12 academic units. Founded in 1947, the College of Engineering is recognized for the quality and diversity of its faculty, students and curricula and noted for educating tomorrow’s technology leaders for career success.

UMCoE is home to a range of additive manufacturing and material characterization equipment. The college houses a well-equipped Makerspace comprised of machining equipment, various 3D printers capable of printing polymers (SLA, SLS, FDM, and DLP) and metals/alloys (prototyping, coarse, and fine resolution). We also offer a range of material characterization facilities at various scales including electron microscopes, particle size/specific surface area analyzers, and other analytical equipment such as thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), high temperature furnaces, and digital optical microscopes. The full suite of equipment and services offered can be seen in the Shared Chemical and Material Characterization Facility (SCMCF) website.
