The Vision Project is the strategic initiative through which the Massachusetts Public Higher Education System as come together to focus on producing the best-educated citizenry and workforce in the nation by achieving national leadership on seven key outcomes, including Research and Economic Activity, meaning the research activity and resulting economic impact by the five campuses of the state's public research university, the University of Massachusetts. This presentation gives a preview of data showing where Massachusetts stands in these outcomes at the outset of the Vision Project. More information at www.mass.edu/visionproject.

- CASA is in its 7 th of 10 years funding that will total 40 million from NSF Faculty Leadership: David McLaughlin, ECE Jim Kurose, CS Key Founding Partner: Raytheon Critical State Support was provided prior to founding of the JAII, with the campus working closely through UMPO.
- Co-Directors: James J. Watkins, PSE Mark Tuominen, Physics Large number of other faculty and institutions Built on 25+ years of MRSEC strength and PS&E program
- The Nanomanufacturing Center at UMass Lowell is made up of 50 faculty in wide range of disciplines (Engineering, Science, Health, Management, Humanities) Current Funding is more than $30M+ from these sources: NSF Center for High-Rate Nanomanufacturing (CHN) Mass. Nanomanufacturing Center of Excellence Government & Industry participation and funding
- Our Nanomanufacturing Center is: an Equal partnership between UMass Lowell, Northeastern, and University of New Hampshire (complementary expertise) $12.4 million, 5-year grant , renewable for an additional 5 years, on top of one received previously, for a total of about $25 million. This NSF center is 1 of only 16 National Science Foundation Nanoscale Science and Engineering Centers nationwide and is 1 of only 3 NSF Nanoscale Science and Engineering Centers nationwide focusing on nanomanufacturing rather than nanoscience (other two are based in California and Illinois)
- Licensing: We have license agreements with: Metabolix – an innovation-driven bioscience company - with over 320 patents globally. Boston Scientific – two license agreements We also generate spin-offs from our research. Among those we have already spun off are: Anterios (an-teer-e-oes) formerly Encapsion – Based on successful research at UMass Lowell, it will use new technology for a range of pharmaceutical and consumer product applications (and raised $7.5 million in its first major round of financing.) Konarka , considered a worldwide leader in a new generation of photo-voltaics and has more than 200 patents and patent applications. Konarka is a leading clean technology company - and its global headquarters is in Lowell.
