Sean Taplin: Environmental Engineering, Week 3
Wow! The internship is already halfway done. I’ve been having such a great time here that time has really been flying by. This week, I worked on three projects: creating a data map, managing heat for the Picarro instruments on the roof, and creating an apparatus to record some experiments Adriann is working on. For […]
Gregor Remec, LASP Software Development, Week Six!
This week was awesome, even though I only worked a day and a half. Monday was super cool because the internship class and I were introduced to Qt and PyQt. These are both graphics libraries, meaning they make developing graphical applications super easy. This is fun because you can see the results of your code […]
Bryce Lambert: Work with REEF: Week 1
Although this is my first blog I have been in Santa Barbara for about 10 days. I flew in on the 26th and started my first day (also the only day I’ve worked so far) at the REEF (Research Experience and Education Foundation) on the 28th. On the 27 I met up with my grandparents […]
Lucy Wesson: Communication and Learning Lab at the University of Chicago, Week 1
Week One at the Learning and Communication Lab Upon my arrival to Chicago, I felt a great sense of relief. All of my built up anxiety and fear about staring this internship melted away as I got settled and rested in my new apartment. And any remaining nerves quickly fled the next morning as I […]
Elena Scheibler: Spinal Cord Research, Week 4
This week was a short, yet eventful at my internship: we only worked Monday through Wednesday because of the 4thof July. I was able to watch another SATco (Standardized assessment of trunk control) take place on a child with cerebral palsy, which involved them perform a set of tests that would determine how much trunk […]
Anza Connaughton: Spinal Rehabilitation at the Frazier Institute, Week 2
Hey there! It’s my second week in Louisville, Kentucky at the Frazier Rehab Institute and it has been amazing. Last week, I observed stand sessions where we stand participants in wheelchairs up on their feet with the use of physical support and a metal frame. This week, I got to jump in and actually participate […]
Trey Schwerdtfeger:Naval Architecture, Week one
I have made it to Mystic CT and am just starting to get my feet wet so to say. It is a beautiful location in between the town of Groton and Stonington. It is a quaint little town that reminds me a lot of Telluride. Other than the beautiful location, I get to work at a […]
Eric Gutierrez Week 2: Aerospace Engineering
Hello again! This is my second week here at Oklahoma State University – and it was just as great as the last. To kick it off, on Monday we went over to Lake Carl Blackwell and did our weekly inspection of the lake. If you have no idea what I’m talking about, you may be interested […]
Danny Bynum: Architecture, Week 4
This was my final week in Miami. Last Saturday I visited the Venetian Pool in Coral Gables. It was a quick 10 minute walk. I swam around for a little while to cool off from the hot Miami weather. On Sunday I rode a bus to South Beach. I spent the day walking down the […]
Mercedes Martinez – Forensic Entomology – “You Go, Squirrel!” – Decomposition Day
7/5/19 – Wake up. Stop alarm. Squirrels. This morning, I walked down to the squirrels, half awake, as usual. However, as soon as I got to the site, I was greeted by a vulture. It startled me so bad that I gasped out loud. I’m sure the vulture would’ve gasped if it had the ability […]
