10/23 - Athenaeum at 1pm - Industry-Driven Research Projects for Students by Beckry Abdel-Magid

Join us this Wednesday, October 23, 2013 at 1:00pm for our last Athenaeum of the fall semester.  We hope you will join us in learning about  Industry-Driven Research Projects for Students presented by Beckry Abdel-Magid, Professor, Composite Materials Engineering.

This presentation will discuss a number of research projects which were initiated through direct interaction with local and regional companies. The projects focused on research that will benefit an entire industry in the region rather than specific companies. A number of students in the engineering department were involved in these projects, and they shared their results with scientists and engineers from various companies in the region. The projects were funded by WSU Next Chapter Grant. The experience of developing such projects that allow students to work on practical problems, and put them in direct contact with professional in the field will be shared with faculty, staff and students.

Please encourage your students and come out to support a colleague!  The Library Athenaeum is located on the second floor of the Library, south side.
