Students at Penn State Brandywine started the 2016-17 academic year with three community service projects that fostered positive change in both Delaware and Chester Counties.
Kenneth Matthews, senior project manager at C.B. Development Services, Inc., said that a critical step in the project’s process is constructing building mockups with the exact materials that will be used in the residence hall and student union building. This helps identify potential issues prior to constructing the actual buildings.
Penn State Brandywine will officially get the 2016-17 athletic season underway Sept. 1 with five of its six fall sports in action, including three at home.
The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded $1.2M in funding to three Penn State chemical engineering researchers for a proposal which aims to identify the key polymeric properties of conjugated polymers used to develop flexible electronics.
While earning her bachelor's degree in psychology from the Brandywine campus, Penn State graduate Megan Draper completed a unique research project that allowed her to explore her passion for primates and pursue a career in her dream field.
Enrique Gomez, Ralph Colby and Scott Milner are working to design the molecular structures of conducting polymers for applications in flexible electronics. The work is focused on predicting fundamental polymeric properties, such as the stiffness of the polymer chain and other physical and chemical properties.
