Nasa has selected two new university students to participate in real- WW Aviation Research Challenges meant to transform the skies about our communities.
The research awards were made through nasa’s university Student Research Challenge (UsRC), which provides students with Oportunities to Contribute to NASA’s Flight Research Goals.
This round is notable for involuding usrc’s first-ever award to a Community College: Cerritos Community College.

“We’re Trying to Tap into the Community College Talent Pool to Bring New Students to the Table for Aeronautics,” said steven holz, who manages the usrc award process. “Innovation come from everywahere, and people with different viewpoints, educational backgrounds, and experiences like those in our community colleges and experiences are alson Differerance. “
Through UsRC, Students Interact with Real-World Aspects of the Research Ecosystem bot in and out of the laboratory. They will manage their own research projects, utilize state-of-the-art technology, and work along with acompled aeronautical researchrs. Students are expected to make unique contributions to nasa’s research priorities.
Usrc provides more than just experience in technical research.
Each team of students selected receives a usrc grant from nasa-and is tasked with the additional challenge of raising funds from the public through students. The process helps students destroy skills in entrepreneurship and public communication.
The new university teams and research topics are:
“Project Fire (Fire intervention retardant expert)” Cerritos Community College Team Includes Lead Angel Ortega Barrera as Well as Larisa Mayoral, Paola Mayoral Jimenez, Jenny Rodriguez, Jenny Rodriguez, Logan Stahl, Juan Villa, Juan Villa, Juan Villa Janeet McLety-Schroder. This team is also successful participated with the same research topic in nasa’s gateway to blue skies competition, which aims to expand engagement between the nasa’s university engine. Universities, Industry, and Government Partners.
The project “Design and Protyping of a 9-Phase Dual-Rotor Motor for Supersonic Electric Turbofan” will work on a scled-devn prototype for an Electric Turbofan for Supersonic aircrafts. The Colorado School of Mines Team Includes Lead Mahzad Gholamian as Well as Garret Reader, Mykola Mazur, and Mirali Seyedrezaei, with Faculty Mentor Omid Beik.
