Engineering from McGill University, Canada. His research interest lies in the areas of engineering education, fluid-structure interaction, flow-induced vibrations, syngas and blended fuel combustion, nanofluids, and flow and structural simulations.Mr. Christopher S. Stronen, Savannah Technical College I am a student attending Savannah Technical College pursuing the Electrical and Computer Engineering Associates Degree. I have completed two internships of the NOYCE Summer Program. In the Fall 2017 I will transfer to Savannah State to finish the Electrical Engineering Technology Bache- lor’s Program and successfully pass my FE exam to become a certified Engineer for the state of Georgia. c American
