Report summary

Michigan Technological University Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering in 2020-2026 reads as a 17-PI network with 3 internal PI collaborations. The dominant subject mix is Engineering as the leading field (59% of slots across 16 PIs; 16 labels), Electrical and Electronic Engineering as the leading subfield (16% of slots across 7 PIs; 7 labels), and Experimental Learning in Engineering as the leading topic (6% of slots across 3 PIs; 3 labels). That is of concern for a 17-PI roster; the strongest pairings may be carrying much of the visible collaboration. The leading PI names are Joshua M. Pearce (46.4 weighted works; Additive Manufacturing and 3D Printing Technologies, Microplastics and Plastic Pollution). The most visible ties are Jeremy P. Bos and Wayne W. Weaver (4 shared works, weight 2.2). The leading breakdown groups are group 1 with 4 PIs, 3 internal connections, weight 3.4, around Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Ocean Engineering, Automotive Engineering, led by Jeremy P. Bos, Wayne W. Weaver, Nader J. Abu-Alrub.
