The cost of doing research in a university lab is usually submitted
with each proposal. Many of the costs depend upon the level of effort
required and the level of the materials and supplies as well as travel
and publication costs involved. Much of this is well known by the
individual lab personnel, but, not very well known by local industry.
I've decided to publish what those costs are like in the Plasma Applications
Lab. on this page. The cost of each project will vary in the details
of course, but, feel free to use this page to estimate what your project
might cost. I'll look forward to working with you.
