Project Description

Students will get to utilize the high voltage laboratory equipment at FSU's Center for Advanced Power Systems. Students will also learn about zero emission aviation as part of a NASA University Leadership Initiative grant which focuses on zero emission aviation. It would also be nice to have students work on creating short video we can share on professional social media sites like LinkedIn

Research Tasks: Hands on experience in the lab, blow stuff up with high voltage electricity, play with liquid nitrogen.

Skills that research assistant(s) may need: Ability to find transport to Center for Advanced Power Systems, Willingness to learn, Able to work as part of a large research team
