Mid-America Earthquake Center

The Mid-America Earthquake Center was established in 1997. Funded by the National Science Foundation, the center's mission is to reduce losses across societal systems through the development of consequence-based engineering approaches that are founded on advanced technologies for characterizing seismic hazards and responses of the built environment. The center is developing new engineering approaches necessary to minimize consequences of future earthquakes across hazard-prone regions, including the eastern and central United States.
