Nathir Rawashdeh, Applied Computing, presented three papers and accompanying videos at the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) Conference for Industry and Education Collaboration (CIEC), February 9-11, 2022. The papers and videos reported on research work performed in the Mechatronics Playground as part of Rawashdeh’s Advanced PLC (programmable logic controllers) class.
Also contributing to the research were Michigan Tech undergraduate and graduate students; Mark Gauthier, president, Donald Engineering; and Alex Sergeyev, Applied Computing.
The Mechatronics Playground, a state-of-the-art learning lab, was generously equipped by Donald Engineering and additional companies. Watch a video about the lab.
