Materials World Modules (MWM) was designed to foster relationships among academic faculties, industries, and middle and high school students and teachers. MWM offers excellent opportunities for industries to become involved in the communities they serve by supporting and sponsoring the use of Materials World Modules within their local schools. Because it emphasizes real-world connections, corporate partners rightfully regard their support of MWM as an investment in future human resources. After all, the student who designs a new kind of sensor while doing the Smart Sensors Module in her high school chemistry class may well become the engineer whose groundbreaking invention propels a company to the top.
