Passionate engineering students who spent the summer working alongside faculty on real-world research projects received the chance to showcase their results during 奶糖直播鈥檚 third annual Undergraduate Research Poster Day, held on September 20.

The annual celebration allows research students the opportunity to present their findings in the traditional poster presentation format. Throughout the day, students exchanged views, challenges, future work, findings, and results with faculty, alumni, industry partners, and fellow students.

Nine engineering students represented the College at this year鈥檚 celebration. Students from the chemical, electrical, civil and environmental, and mechanical engineering departments participated. Research students who presented included:

• William Albert ME 鈥�12: 鈥淎 Comprehensive Study of the Mechanics of Gold Nanoparticle Indentation,鈥� mentored by Dr. Gang Feng, Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering
• Emily Battinelli EE 鈥�12: 鈥淢icrostructured Optical Fiber for Cellular Temperature Sensing,鈥� mentored by Dr. Rosalind Wynne, Associate Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering
