JUMR is a scientific journal dedicated to research performed by undergraduate students in materials related fields. JUMR is published annually and is a student run endeavor. The editorial board is currently made up of graduate and undergraduate students from the Departments of English and Materials Science and Engineering.

Volume 1, the Alfred Knobler Inaugural Issue, was released in October of 2005 and Volume 2 was officially released on November 28, 2006.

The primary goal of the journal is to provide a venue for undergraduates to publish research performed in materials related fields. The secondary goals are to provide opportunities for undergraduates to practice their communication skills and learn about peer-reviewed  publications, as well as providing opportunities for editorial board members to participate in the administration of creating the peer-reviewed publication.
