We are eager to welcome you to the community!

Polymers are all around us, and we use them everyday. From rubber to plastic, the kitchenware we use daily, to the microprocessors that run your computer. As you may have guessed, we’re talking about something molecular, and learning about the chemistry and physics of something so small is understandably hard to approach. What’s more, watching the process of creating these polymer chains, polymerization, in person, can only be granted under certain conditions in the lab, however the lab too has its limitations, including time constraints, space and the labor it takes to maintain the cleanliness of the lab. This can be even harder to teach in a class environment. The Polymerization Lab created in CMMU however, allows anybody from anywhere to enter the lab and understand the basics of polymerization. Here, you can configure various factors to your liking such as the temperature. Playing with the temperature in the lab can be very dangerous, but danger is not a limitation at CMMU. All students are encouraged to see for themselves what would happen when you push certain parameters too far. And this limitless experimentation is applicable in all fields of learning! We are excited to see what boundaries future courses could challenge in this expanding learning universe.
