The Center

The Competence Center for Materials and Processes (MaP) is a collaborative and multidisciplinary community active in materials, process engineering, and manufacturing technologies. MaP promotes transdisciplinary collaboration in research and education along the innovation chain.

MaP Organisational Structure

Organisation

Governance

The core of MaP is the General Assembly comprising all MaP members. This scientific network currently consists of about 80 research groups from nine departments of ETH Zurich.

MaP is governed by an Steering Committee that is composed of representatives from each of the involved departments with more than two research groups. The Chair and Vice-Chair are nominated from among the members of the Steering Committee.

The Advisory Board comprises representatives from other research institutes of the ETH Domain and industry and advises MaP on its activities.

The by-laws are the guidelines that govern the Competence Center.

Activities & Operations

The Executive Office implements the strategy and runs day-to-day operations and events.

It is located at ETH Hönggerberg in the HCP building on the F floor (offices 37.3 & 39.1).

The Executive Office and the MaP member groups engage in research, education, and community-building for ETH researchers and industry partners in Materials and Processes.

Other entities under the MaP umbrella

The MaP Doctoral School is a separate entity under the umbrella of the competence center. It is open to doctoral students affiliated with a MaP member.

The ETH Sabbatical | CAS Advanced Materials and Processes (AMaP) is MaP's customised further education programme for experienced industry professionals with a Master's degree.

ETH sister organisations
