Morgan Innovation Day
The annual showcase of faculty and student research and industrial development offers an interactive opportunity for lawmakers and citizens to learn more about Morgan’s strategic plans for commercializing science and technological innovation for Maryland’s emerging STEM industries.
Faculty Innovation and Entrepreneurship
Dr Aslan, a Professor of Chemistry at Morgan State University, has recently described and demonstrated the use of a new crystallization technology, called metal-assisted and microwave-assisted evaporative crystallization (MA-MAEC). The MA-MAEC technology was the subject of Morgan’s first ever patent full application in its over 140-year history.
Dr. Sitther , an assistant proffesor of biology, received a $100,000 Maryland Innovation Initiative grant to begin development of a method to produce biofuel from cyanobacteria in naturally available salt water.
Omar S. Muhammad is another faculty member that leads innovation at Morgan. Mr. Muhammad serves as the "Director Entrepreneurial Development and Assistance Center" and single handly connects morgans resources with the students. He is currently working on multidiscipinary programs, such as the five year Engineering + M.B.A degree program.
Arlene Maclin is an adjunct professor of physics at Morgan State University. She currently leads the the Mid-Atlantic Consortium-Center for Academic Excellence (MAC-CAE) aims at educating students interested in areas of national security and intelligence studies. The MAC-CAE is a workforce development effort for the intelligence community with an emphasis on the South Asian region of the world.
The University Technology Transfer Function
Morgan State University is in great need of a technology office and a center where all constituents of Morgan State University can connect in the theme of "entrepreneurship and innovation". The University Innovation collective will continue to push these needs to ensure future possibilities.
University-Industry Collaboration
Goddard Earth Sciences Technology and Research (GESTAR)
A multidisciplinary team of Morgan State University scientists, under the leadership of Dr. Joseph A. Whittaker, successfully won a joint cooperative agreement from the Earth Sciences Division of NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) worth nearly $96M, the largest federal contract in the institution's history. Through funding, the MSU component of the GESTAR Program began in May 2011. This program brings more than 40 established and internationally recognized scientists to MSU and creates broad research and internship opportunities in earth and atmospheric sciences for our students.
Patuxent Environmental & Aquatic Research Laboratory
The mission of the Patuxent Environmental & Aquatic Research Laboratory (PEARL) is to engage a diverse group of undergraduate and graduate students in conducting innovative research dedicated to investigating the complex interactions that define our environment. PEARL applies interdisciplinary approaches to studying the connections between complex ecological systems, while providing society with knowledge to meet the environmental challenges of the 21st Century.
