Seven Arkansas State students were part of a team that won funding along with four other teams at the national level to run experiments on the International Space Station in 2022. Part of the team were four engineering students - Benjamin Whitfield of Little Rock, an Electrical Engineering major and team leader; Landon Perdue of Brookland, Mason Rhodes of Benton, and Jacob Oster of Bay, who are mechanical engineering majors;. Dr. Ilwoo Seok, mechanical engineering professor, mentored the student team along with other faculty members. More information on the project can be found here.
Through the integration of innovation, start-up support, technology transfer and partnerships with businesses and communities, the A-State Innovation System provides opportunities for entrepreneurs to access resources and bring ideas to the marketplace.
