Congratulations are in order for three of the MARS Lab alumni for job offers and employment. The experience they acquired and software and hardware tools they learned during their research in the MARS Lab landed them job offers!

Utsav Shah with GM (place coming soon)
Matthew Heuser with Automation wiht Romeo Engineering in Fort Worth, TX
Divya Shah with Amazon in Dallas, TX
Shahid Faizee (coming soon)

Congratulations and we look forward to your continued successes!
Stay in touch and remember the MARS lab when you become wealthy and you are always welcomed to come back!

Matt succesfully defended his master’s thesis on robotic based additive manufacturing. Matt has already received a job offer and he will start after completing the spring semester course requirements. He fell in love with robots – what can I say, I take the blame!

Congratulations and we look forward to your continue successes!

Utsav succesfully defended his master’s thesis on Human Robot Interaction through Knowledge and Machine Learning approaches. He has developed an flexible, modular, expandable environment based on LabVIEW and myRIO for his work. This environment will be employed for continued research in HRI modalities.

Congratulations and we look forward to your continued successes!

Compton will be working with Chris and Utsav on mechatronics related activities on an artificial hand. We look forward to his accomplishments.

Zach is a material science student who will be researching additive manufactring (3D printing) of βTCP for biomedical scaffold fabrication. We look forward to his accomplishments.

Saul will be working with Chris and Utsav on mechatronics and more specifically on software development related to Human Robot Interaction employing an artificial hand. We look forward to his accomplishments.

Shahid succesfully defended his master’s thesis work on the development and characterization of the photopolymerization module of the multi-module 3D BioPrinter. 

Congratulations and wishes for continued success!

Tushar succesfully defended his master’s thesis on additive manufacturing methodologies for multiprocess material scenarios. Tushar decided to continue his studies towards a doctoral degree at UTA on the same subject. 

Congratulations and we look forward to your continue success and contributions to the field of additive manufacturing aka 3D Printing!

Wishes for continued success!
