MEDIA, Pa. — Each year, Penn State Brandywine honors students during its annual Exhibition of Undergraduate Research Enterprise and Creative Accomplishment (EURECA). The event serves as an opportunity for Brandywine undergraduates to present their research and other endeavors to the campus community after months of hard work.
This year's EURECA, which took place on April 4, featured 22 poster presentations from students in academic programs such as American studies, biology, business, communications, engineering, English, human development and family studies, information sciences and technology, psychology and more. The event also allows students to feature video and computer presentations, short readings, artistic displays and performances.
This year’s STEM Research Award, which honors a project that is in the disciplines of science, technology, engineering or mathematics and possibly holds significance to the general public, was presented to Timothy Janick for his research titled “Passive Mechanical Walkers are a Proxy for Studying Dynamic Balance in Human Gait.” Janick’s faculty adviser was Instructor in Chemistry and Physics Timothy Niiler.
