Hi my name is Gary Palmer II and I'm a senior mechanical engineering major at the University of Maryland. My interest in flexible macroelectronics stems from its future capabilities. The fact that these components can be integrated with everyday objects is fascinating. Since this technology will be used in the future, it will be great to be on the leading edge of its development.
My name is Christi Ryon. I am a senior undergraduate mechanical engineering student at the University of Maryland, College Park. I am taking a course in flexible macroelectronics for two reasons. First, this course fulfils a major requirement. The second reason is that the subject of flexible macroelectronics is a new emerging technology that I was not familiar with but is a topic that I wished to learn more about.
My name is Ben Marshall and I am an undergraduate mechanical engineering student at the University of Maryland. I am currently enrolled into a flexible macroelectronics class at the University of Maryland, taught by Dr. Teng Li. I gained interest in this class through a guess lecture Dr. Li gave in one of my classes. Flexible macroelectronics seems to be a growing area in electronics and I have always been interested in plasma and flat panel screen technology. My research interest is electronic packaging.
My name is Michael Mutaku and I am a mechanical engineering student at the University of Maryland. I am a senior and I hope to graduate in May of 2007 with my bachelor's degree in ME. I am mostly interested in the fabrication of electronics and so flexible electronics sounded like an interesting topic to study. After the first day of class I decided to stay in this class because the professor discussed all the possibilities for flexible electronics including large displays. With more and more people buying big screen plasma screens, it seems vital for an engineer to understand how to create even larger displays in order to meet the demands of the people. With cellphones being able to carry live feeds from television stations, it only seems plausible for a person to have a personal screen comparable to a tv at the palm of your hand that can be folded to the size of a cellphone.
My name is Matthias Irmscher and I am a graduate student currently visiting the University of Maryland for a year. I will finish my equivalent of a Master's degree at the Technical University of Ilmenau in Germany by the end of 2008. I am a current Fulbright grantee.
Dear All,
My name is Ravikumar Sanapala. I am doing Master of Science (M.S) in Mechanical Engineering at University of Maryland. I recieved a Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech) degree in Mechanical Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Madras, India.
My name is Mohamed Nefatni. I'm a senior in Mechanical Engineering, expecting to graduate in December 2007. I was born in Tunisia (North Africa) and came to the U.S 4 years ago. I'm a transfer student from Montgomery College. I'm actually planning to apply for graduate school and my research interests are Electronic packaging and Reliability.
I am a PhD student in Mechanical Engineering. My research field is the reliability of electronics and packaging. These topics have a big relationship with the manfacturing process of the electronics.
First of all, I am hardly a writer and to be honest, this tiny entry will probably have taken me a couple hours. Between watching tv, procrastinating, surfing the web, dealing with my recent concussion and the dizziness that has been associated with it, I've been having a bit of a tough time this semester. I think some of that may just be due to the fact that I'll be graduating (hopefully) soon.
My name is David Schanuel and I am enrolled in the flexible macroelectronics course taught by professor Teng Li at the University of Maryland College Park. I am enrolled in this class for a couple of reasons, first being the interest in a new field of science and the second being a course that fufills a graduation requirement.
