| Industrial Assessment Center: |
The Texas A&M University Industrial Assessment Center provides no-cost studies of manufacturing plants within about 150 miles of its campus at College Station.
Engineering students under the direction of Mechanical Engineering faculty and Energy Systems Laboratory staff perform studies analyzing a plant’s energy, waste, and productivity issues. The Industrial Assessment Center Program is a national program sponsored by the US Department of Energy and centers at universities around the nation provide services. To obtain more information, contact the Industrial Assessment Center (IAC) laboratory web site at http://iac.tamu.edu. |
