USCRP

Last week, students from 19 schools attended the USCRP Student Laboratory Training and Professional Development opportunity at the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) Coastal and Hydraulics Laboratory (CHL) facilities in Vicksburg, Mississippi. Through this opportunity, students: 🔬 Experienced hands-on laboratory activities 🗣️ Heard valuable insights shared by federal researchers 🤝 Networked with various disciplines and students 💼 Explored career opportunities Schools: Auburn University Michigan Technological University Oregon State University Universidad de Puerto Rico University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University of Washington University of West Florida University of South Florida University of Florida Stevens Institute of Technology University of Delaware University of New Hampshire University of Missouri-Columbia University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign University of Miami The University of Texas at Austin University of Washington University of Mississippi #USCRPStudentOpportunity #CoastalResearch #ERDC #ProfessionalDevelopment #HandsOnExperience #CoastalCareers

🎓 Meet Narayan Kumar, Narayan Kumar is a coastal engineering PhD student at the University of Delaware with a research focus on numerical modeling of beach profile evolution due to sediment transport. He volunteered at the Decadal Visioning Workshop and most enjoyed the breakout sessions.
