Projects

A new program that provides opportunities for hands-on experiences in micromachines to students at the Northumbria University-Newcastle (UNN) program at Korea's Seoul National University of Technology.

Korean students are able to benefit from a summer educational program in which they could gain some hands-on Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) experience, while also improving their English language skills. Rose Hulman students also get the opportunity to serve as mentors to the visiting students.

Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology students and faculty are playing a role in helping the Smart Lighting Engineering Research Center (ERC) hasten the transition of important innovations from the laboratory bench to the classroom and marketplace.

The center is dedicated to developing new light-emitting diode (LED) technologies and applications for smarter, better-performing lighting devices and systems.  Launched in 2008 and funded primarily by the National Science Foundation, the ERC is led by Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) of Troy, N.Y.
