Glass is so ubiquitous in our daily lives that we barely notice it anymore. Yet, our modern lives would have been very different (or nearly impossible) without it. Glass as a historical material has far-reaching applications for thousands of years! Few materials have so many wonderful characteristics and unique applications in human society, brilliantly connecting the artists and the scientists among us.

This site documents students work as they take a deep dive into the materails science of glass, and explore glass through the lens of history, art, and societal impact.
