About
Established in 2012, the X-ray Center for Material Analysis played a key role in supporting research, community engagement, and technology transfer at the University of Sharjah (UoS). It built a strong reputation through quality research outputs, technical workshops, expert visits, student projects, and collaborations with national and international agencies.
In 2014, following a strategic shift in the university's research priorities, the center was restructured and renamed to the Center for Advanced Materials Research (CAMR) to align with UoS’s evolving vision and expanded research goals in materials science.
Vision
The vision of CAMR is to achieve excellence in materials science research and education, by combining local resources and expertise, in order to provide solutions to complex technical challenges in material design and identification. We envision to unite foundational research with applied innovation, creating simplified yet high-performing materials, training, and translating discoveries into impactful solutions.
Mission
The Center for Advanced Materials Research (CAMR) is dedicated to advancing materials research, education, and outreach by leveraging state-of-the-art analytical techniques for the characterization and development of innovative materials. By integrating local expertise with interdisciplinary collaboration, CAMR supports high-impact research aligned with national and societal priorities, particularly in energy, environment, health, and cultural heritage. \ CAMR strives to build research capacity through shared facilities, strategic partnerships with academia and industry, and the continuous development of skilled scientists and engineers. The center also aspires to promote inclusive scientific training and public engagement, so contributing to a stronger, more diversified pipeline of science and engineering professionals.
Goals and Objectives
- Foster interdisciplinary research at the forefront of materials science.
- Bring together motivated faculty and students in a highly collaborative research environment.
- Educate scientists and engineers at the graduate and undergraduate levels in the broadly defined discipline of materials science.
- Provide training opportunities for lab supervisors and technicians in different analytical techniques.
- Engage the community by providing consulting and training services to municipalities, forensic labs, environmental agencies, museums, and the energy sector, among others.
- Provide unique capabilities that are not usually accessible to the local industries. Petroleum, energy, pharmaceutical, semiconductor, cement and other building materials, are some of the industries that might benefit from such capabilities.
- Enhance research collaboration efforts of UoS with universities and centers at the national and regional levels.
