Dr. Ryan Roeder is looking for 1-2 new students this spring,especially rising juniors with an interest in graduate school. Many specific research projects are available within the general areas of biomaterials, biomechanics and materials science, and will be discussed with the student.

Dr. Joseph Powers is interested in working with one/two dedicated students on problems in computational modeling of combustion systems.  An interest in basic thermal science, mathematics, and computer programming is essential, and depending on the student's background, he may ask that appropriate coursework be undertaken simultaneously.  The successful student will do original research and generate a scientific report documenting their research.  The effort will be excellent preparation for graduate study as well as better enable the student to compete for graduate fellowships.

Dr. Philippe Sucosky is seeking 1 student to work on a project which would consist of designing and developing a bioreactor to subject cardiovascular tissue to shear stress. The work will involve the use of CAD software and the understanding of cardiovascular tissue physiology.

Dr. David Go would be interested in 2-3 students.  His research focuses on small scale (millimeter to nanometers) transport including heat transfer, fluid dynamics, and particle motion.  Specific applications being studied by Dr. Go include nano/microsystems for electronics cooling, biological/chemical analysis, and environmental monitoring.
