Research Assistant Opportunities
RMEP offers 2 research assistant opportunities for our rising seniors or graduating seniors. These programs provides students with hands on research and experience dealing with various fields of engineering. Students work with VCU graduate students, while conducting research and experiments.
Opportunity # 1- Nano Magnet Research- A nanomagnet is a submicrometric system that presents spontaneous magnetic order (magnetization) at zero applied magnetic field (remanence). The small size of nanomagnets prevents the formation of magnetic domains (see single domain (magnetic)).In this lab, students will be working on projects related to creating nanomagnets.
Opportunity # 2- Nanoparticles Research- Nanoparticles are very tiny particles between 1 and 100 nanometers in size.(1 nanometer = 10^(-9) meter). Due to the extremely small sizes, these nanoparticles could exhibit unique properties. More details can be found here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanoparticle . In this lab, students will be working on projects related to the synthesis and characterization of nanoparticles.
