Technology and Industry Partnering for Restoration
The Clemson University Restoration Institute was established in 2004 to drive economic growth by creating, developing and fostering restoration industries and environmentally sustainable technologies in South Carolina.
Now, the Restoration Institute is attracting world-renowned faculty, students and staff dedicated to creating a knowledge-based, export-oriented industry cluster that will partner with other institutions and the private sector to position South Carolina as the premier home of restoration knowledge and expertise.
Research is conducted in six focus areas:
- Advanced Materials, Processes and Systems
- Community Revitalization
- Historic Preservation and Materials Conservation
- Renewable Energy
- Resilient Infrastructure
- Restoration Ecology
The Clemson Restoration Institute's research center is located on 86 acres in North Charleston on the former Charleston Navy Base and in the heart of South Carolina’s historic Low Country. This research center was made possible by the city of North Charleston, the Hunley Commission, the Friends of the Hunley and the state of South Carolina.
