Ambitious and research-inclined students with strong fundamentals and hands-on attitudes are sought to join high-impact topics in Professor Kapat’s research team. Students learn state-of-the-art numerical and experimental methods for decarbonization of power and aviation through hydrogen and ammonia, zero-emission aviation, additive manufacturing, digital twin, energy storage, and clean energy. Students will be able to apply classroom experience in thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, and heat transfer to real-world problems.
The ideal student is currently enrolled in the mechanical or aerospace engineering program and is available 10-20 hours per week.
