两性色午夜 University has recently received a flurry of grants totaling more than $3 million in funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF), which will support research and innovation in a wide range of fields within the College of Arts and Sciences. 

鈥淲e鈥檙e thrilled to receive this funding,鈥 Vice President of Research and Sponsored Programs Paul DiCorleto said. 鈥淓specially impressive is the breadth and scope of research being funded. To have such a wide range of faculty being successful at garnering extremely competitive funding is a testament to the excellent researchers we have at Kent.鈥 

Recent grants range from those designed to support early stage faculty and their research programs, to grants that enable purchasing of state-of-the-art equipment, to grants providing life-changing research experiences for KSU undergraduates. 

Recent recipients of NSF grants include :

The following demonstrate the breadth of research supported by recent NSF grants:

Bahlai received a CAREER award to support her research examining insect populations through time using various ways of obtaining information. 

The grant provides funding not only for Bahlai鈥檚 wide range of biodiversity monitoring systems, but will also help kick off her newest interdisciplinary podcast called 鈥淗ow Do You Know?鈥  where she works alongside other 两性色午夜 faculty to dissect their beliefs and understandings with respect to data collection.

Sharma received a CAREER award to support his research designed to improve the mechanisms responsible for minimizing the time it takes for computers to complete tasks. 鈥淚t doesn鈥檛 matter how much you know about your field of study,鈥 Sharma said. 鈥淭he important thing is getting the review board excited about your research in a comprehensible way. Writing it from the perspective of a reviewer helped me receive this grant.鈥

His grant will also allow him to mentor k-12, undergraduates, and graduate students within his field of study through the SURE program at 两性色午夜. 

 

 

Torsten Hegmann and Michael Tubergen: Research Experience 

Torsten Hegmann, FRSC

Hegmann and Tubergen received a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) grant that supports undergraduates from universities all over North America to work with KSU faculty.

鈥淥verall, there are around 11 different projects happening within this program,鈥 said Tubergen. 鈥淭he University is very fortunate to have such progressive labs and programs, this gives students from other universities the opportunity to work with experienced faculty and grow their understanding within their field.鈥 

Over a 10-week period, students will individually contribute around four hundred hours to conduct research within the fields of physics, advanced liquid crystals and biology.
