Interested in pursuing an MEng? Questions on dates, deadlines, and paperwork? Wondering about the difference between an early MEng and a not-early MEng?
MAE MEng Info Session on September 14 at 5:00 in 106 Upson.
See you there!
Interested in learning about MAE’s MEng Program? The one year MEng degree is a great way to enhance your engineering skills or do a deep dive into a specialty area that interests you. Focused on getting you the job you want after graduation the program is flexible, with each student’s goals used to create an individual program of courses. All programs have a major project as a core of their experience.
MAE (Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering) will be holding a live Zoom info MEng Info Session on Monday May 18th.
There will be a short presentation about the program followed by a question and answer session.

Several summer lab, research, and internship opportunities available. Please see below!
Two Summer Programs
The Life Changing Labs Summer Incubator Program is an 8-week program that enables founders and life changers to develop their company and consult with experts in fields ranging from legal corporations to branding and marketing. The companies engage in weekly programming sessions to practice and refine their pitches and have the opportunity to listen to influential speakers who come to share their know-how. To get more information, please contact John Callister, jc62@cornell.edu.
The Johnson Summer Startup Accelerator is a 10-week summer intensive that will continue the momentum for student startups finishing their spring semester. Supported by the numerous Cornell and Ithaca entrepreneurial resources, teams will participate in weekly workshops and regularly meet with Entrepreneurs in Residence. The Kadiyali Fund will support student participation in the summer Accelerator. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis.

Remote Summer Research Opportunity in the Space Systems Design Studio
Project: CFD Simulation – ChipSat Atmospheric Entry in ANSYS Fluent
ChipSats, short for satellite-on-a-chip technology, are a revolutionary approach to space exploration. Thanks to the miniaturization of electronics in the smartphone era, our lab is able to pack all the essential components of a functioning spacecraft onto a single gram-scale circuit board. ChipSats have been successfully demonstrated in previous missions (see KickSat 2), but research is currently being done to increase their capability. My research centers on atmospheric entry. If ChipSats are able to survive and land back on earth, they could physically transport large amounts of data, bypassing the bottleneck of traditional radio communication. Just think about how much can be stored on a microSD card these days! Due to their low ballistic coefficient, it is hypothesized that ChipSats will not generate as much heat while slowing down in the atmosphere, and therefore maintain survivable temperatures.
I am looking for a student to help me model and simulate parts of this using ANSYS Fluent, a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software widely used in industry. Both the thermal issue and how far the ChipSats scatter when landing are dependent on a number of factors (aspect ratio, thickness, position of the center of mass). Tweaking these parameters can result in different modes of motion – tumbling, fluttering, spiralling – as the chips fall through the sky. By running batch simulations in which we vary one parameter, we can learn how these factors affect the modes of motion, which modes are most probable, and which will result in the greatest chance for survival -a key finding for future ChipSat design. Software can be accessed remotely via the Swanson Lab computers and collaboration will occur over screen sharing. Previous CFD experience is not required. If interested, please email me with your resume.

Carnegie Mellon Master’s Program Applications Open
Hello,
We hope you are doing well during this time. We understand that some students’ plans may have changed due the COVID-19 pandemic. For our Fall 2020 Master’s programs, we are reopening our application from May 6 – June 15, on a rolling admission basis, to support those students considering graduate education. Students interested in applying for the Fall 2020 term of entry can learn more about our Master’s programs and application requirements here: https://www.meche.engineering.cmu.edu/education/graduate-programs/index.html.
Best,
Melissa Brown
