We hosted a workshop on “Learning Wind Engineering Concepts via Visualizing Invisible Wind in Virtual Reality” on June 3, 2024. There are 11 high school senior students who showed a strong interest in engineering attending the workshop. Students were well engaged in the teaching content and very interested in the physics of fluid and winds. This K-12 outreach activity is conducted through a collaboration with Engineering Education Outreach Coordinator Sara Pharazyn, Drs. Francisco R. Ortega, Rebecca Atadero, Matthew Rhodes and Hannah Hausman, and partially supported by NSF (award number: 2153751).
80% of participants in ENvision Summer Program are from under-represented groups including women, first-generation, etc.
We offered research opportunities for two undergraduate freshmen students, Andrew White and Kevin Tran in Spring 2024. Both students were involved in computational fluid dynamics simulations of fluid-structure-interaction.
