Overview
The Clemson University Restoration Institute (CURI) was established in 2004, in North Charleston, as a means for driving economic growth, innovation and workforce development in South Carolina's Lowcountry. Facilities in North Charleston provide researchers, scientists, students and faculty with ample opportunity to impact the growing tech economy while also appreciating the rich historical heritage in the surrounding area. At any given time on the CURI campus, teams can be found working on a diverse range of projects including: historic preservation, restoration ecology, advanced materials research, digital production arts and filmmaking, marine conservation and electric grid testing - just to name a few.
