Paper Science & Engineering Foundation
The Paper Science & Engineering Foundation at Miami University was founded in 1960 through the generous donations of several local paper mills and corporations who wanted to ensure the education of future paper engineers. We continue to actively work with students in the paper science and engineering program at Miami University. Miami is one of very few schools in the country to offer this curriculum! Our program boasts 100% placement for our graduates, with some of the highest starting salaries across campus. We are very proud of what we do here!
