A Message from the Executive Director

Welcome to the homepage of Fenn Research & Development Institute (FRDI). The Institute was formed recently in order to develop a closer partnership between the Fenn College of Engineering and industry. FRDI is structured to be a one-stop engineering R&D support entity involving expert faculty, engaged students, dedicated staff and physical facilities. The Institute has four major units, namely:

• Industry Joint Research Projects 
• Service Learning
• Industry Services and Contracts ( ISC )
• Industry Outreach
