Sponsor a Research Project

The ERC welcomes and encourages new students, research collaborations and sponsors from national and international public and private organizations.

Today’s ERC is supported by a rich history of success in engine research, demonstrated through people, publications and technologies and with a vision to pursue the needed engine research.

Our research collaborations have grown steadily, research consortia and gifts and contracts collaborations now account for more than half of our funding and we expect to consolidate these relations and reach new research partners.

The development of understanding on physical and chemical processes of interest for fuels, engines and aftertreatment systems as well as the solution of industry problems are of our interest. For example, new research on computational fluid dynamics submodels and integrated system models mutually supported by experimental diagnostics and engine experiments is encouraged.

We wish to consolidate and grow in our interactions for modeling activities with organizations and/or research groups and also to consolidate and develop collaborative experimental research developing partnerships for our current laboratories and for developing our two laboratories in the new Mechanical Engineering building, these areas provide opportunity for further engine research.

Interested public and private organizations are encouraged to contact the ERC Director to explore and establish research collaborations.
