The Institute for Advanced Composite Manufacturing Innovation has an interest in developing the skills of strong technical undergraduate and graduate students who might one day support the workforce in both talent and leadership. The IACMI Internship Program offers undergraduate and graduate students a chance to participate in a research experience with an assigned mentor at one of IACMI’s partner sites. The experience provides a maximum of 400 hours of participation during the authorized appointment period. The program is managed for IACMI by ORAU.
Selected candidates will develop and deliver a brief presentation and poster at the IACMI Members’ Meeting. The IACMI Members’ Meeting location and dates vary each year, but will fall within the appointment period. Students will be provided information upon appointment. Travel expenses will be reimbursed according to ORAU Travel Policy. This event provides participants the opportunity to network with 300+ industry partners and showcase their research.
Project Description
Selected candidates for this opportunity will take part in innovative wind turbine research with IACMI's partner at The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) in Golden, CO.
The Colorado-based Wind Turbine Technology Area will focus on developing advanced composites manufacturing processes for turbine components, including blades, hubs, and nacelles. By building upon the extensive composites and manufacturing expertise of Colorado State University, Colorado School of Mines, Iowa State University, and The University of Colorado, the technology area will develop new materials and production methods for wind turbine blades—resulting in longer, lighter-weight, and more efficient blades for the next generation of turbines.
