Maton Guers, doctoral candidate in Engineering Science and Mechanics, will present a paper and a poster at the 2007 QNDE Conference, to be held in Denver, Colorado, July 22 - 27, 2007.

The paper titled "A Noninvasive Pressure Measurement Technique and the Potential for Integrated Temperature Compensation" is co-authored with Christopher J. Fontana (M.S., Engineering Science) and Dr. Bernhard R. Tittmann (Schell Professor).

Mr. Guers will also present a poster titled "Continuous, Noninvasive Level Measurement with a PVDF Strip". Poster co-authors are Daniel R. Ziinskis (Ph.D., Engineering Science and Mechanics) Maton Guers and Dr. Bernhard R. Tittmann.

Jason T. Ryan, (Ph.D., MatSc), will be presenting a paper titled "Electron Spin Resonance Studies of Silicon Nano-Crystal Flash Memory Devices" at the Semiconductor Technology for Ultra Large Scale Integrated Circuits and Thin Film Transistors (IEEE UCSI) Conference, July 28 - August 23, 2007, in Barga, Italy. The paper was co-authored with P.M. Lenahan (Penn State Professor of Engineering Science and Mechanics), L. Visnubhotla, S. Straub, M. Ramachandran, R. Rao, and T. Merchant (all of Freescale Semiconductor).

Fan Zhang, doctoral student in engineering science and mechanics, will attend the 6th annual How to Engineer Engineering Education Workshop, July 16-18, 2007, at Bucknell University.

This hands on workshop is for engineering and science faculty and graduate students to enhance their skills in course design by: Writing clear instructional objectives: Using active, cooperative, & problem-based learning; Teaching teamwork and problem solving skills; & Assessing learning outcomes.
