This proposal requests funds to expand and strengthen the research and educational activities of W. M. Keck Computational Materials Theory Center (CMTC) at California State University Northridge (CSUN), a Hispanic-serving institution by forming a long-term and formal collaborative partnership with Princeton Center for Complex Materials (PCCM), an NSF-funded Materials Research Science and Engineering Center. The overarching vision of the proposed PREM Center is to establish a joint research powerhouse on computational materials science and to increase recruitment, retention and degree attainment by members of underrepresented groups in materials research. Building upon the past successes, the rationale for the Center?s expansion lies in its demonstrated ability to bring together unique talents and capabilities across disciplines to solve complex problems in quantum materials, to enhance the stature of materials research, and to impact broadly education and outreach.
