Center for Advanced Ceramic Technology (CACT) at Alfred University

Outside of Ordinary: Alfred University's Industrial Advantage.
Alfred University is a global leader in research and development of two important sectors - glass and ceramics. Few people are truly aware of how glass and ceramics make the technologies they use every day, from cell phones to medical devices and transportation, possible. Alfred researchers and alumni are major drivers in developing these technologies, and with one of the only academic programs in the world offering Master’s and Doctoral degrees in Glass Science and Ceramic Engineering, our alums are embedded at companies like Apple, Corning, Lockheed, Tesla, and others. Alfred’s commitment to next generation technologies is bolstered by the launch of the new Center for Glass Research, and a $7.75 million investment in ceramic machining and additive manufacturing. Alfred’s strengths in high temperature characterization, x-ray diffraction, raman spectroscopy, and ceramic and glass materials processing are unmatched. These investments, position Alfred at the forefront of developing the materials and processes needed by industry to ensure the performance, repeatability, and reliability of new glass and ceramics materials are they are deployed in the field.
