Congratulations to our Ph.D. student, Hanwei Wang, for being selected as one of the 2022-2023 Mavis fellows.

“The Mavis Future Faculty Fellows (MF3) Academy in The Grainger College of Engineering was developed to facilitate the training of the next generation of great engineering faculty. The Grainger College of Engineering is internationally recognized for the impact of our research and the strength of our graduate education. The doctoral programs that produce this reputation are primarily research-focused and may not provide students interested in academic careers with the opportunity to gain the knowledge of how to become a highly productive faculty member.”
