The Virtual Student Federal Service is a project based initiative brought to us by the US Department of State. After partnering with them for two years, the program has matured and now has 660 available projects. Students can form teams, or work solo, and bid on projects and are then paired with project mentors to complete their projects between August 1st and August 31st. Because of the way in which COVID-19 has impacted students’ ability to complete or obtain internships, this is a great possibility to increase student professional development… Read more Virtual Student Federal Service Projects – Apply by 7/31 →

Title: Combined Heating and Cooling for Agricultural Applications Abstract: The project is sponsored by Engineers Without Borders USA (EWB-USA) as part of the chill challenge (https://www.ewb-usa.org/chill-challenge/) to provide affordable, off-grid refrigeration. This research will examine the potential for using a combined heating and cooling vapor compression system to produce ice and to dry crops. Vapor compression refrigeration systems have a high initial cost, and a combined system, which uses the evaporator capacity to create ice and the condenser heat to dry crops, may provide a way to offset that cost.… Read more Fall 2020: 3 Credit Hour ME 59700 Independent Project Opportunity →
Title: Cold Storage Battery for Domestic Refrigeration Abstract: The project is sponsored by Engineers Without Borders USA (EWB-USA) as part of the chill challenge (https://www.ewb-usa.org/chill-challenge/) to provide affordable, off-grid refrigeration. This research will evaluate the use of heat from clay or brick cookstoves to drive an intermittent sorption cold storage battery, which requires no electricity to operate. The device is referred to as a cold storage battery because the generated refrigerant does not need to be immediately discharged, but can instead be stored and expanded later to provide cooling on… Read more Fall 2020: 3 Credit Hour ME 49700 Independent Project Opportunity →
