with a $300,000 grant from the National Science Foundation.
Dr. Robert Palumbo, Jenny professor of emerging technology
and one of the world's leading solar energy researchers, will lead the project
to study the industrial potential of high temperature solar electrolysis over
the next five years, four with NSF support.

This summer, Valparaiso University
senior Faith Dunn of Rochester, Minn., put her engineering know-how to work
while serving her faith as a part of a team designing a Christian wilderness
camp and conference center in Albania.
Dunn, a civil engineering major, was one of two student
interns working on the project for Engineering Ministries International (eMi),
a non-profit Christian development organization that designs facilities to
help children and families in developing countries step out of poverty.
