The program was designed by Northwestern University under an NSF grant using materials science in a hands-on inquiry based teaching method. This three year grant will establish a national MWM center and provide modules for deployment of MWM nation-wide. DoD has piloted Material World Modules, a hands-on interdisciplinary materials science program, in middle and high schools adjacent to several DoD laboratories since 2003. The planned three expansion of MWM is one component of a Director, Defense Research & Engineering (DDR&E) initiative to build capacity i science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. The national MWM center will provide support and modules to state MWM centers for deployment in their respective states.
