Student Research

While useful technology, drones can pose a serious security risk. Systems engineering and operations research undergraduates Dyar Aziz and Markus Garretson are working to develop a methodology for inferring drone intent based on sensor data. 

Fuse at Mason Square will give student researchers like Soelem Aafnan Bhuiyan a dedicated space for globally impactful research.

Shima Mohebbi, assistant professor in the College of Engineering and Computing at George Mason University, together with researchers from universities across the country received a $1.6 million grant from NSF on Conservation Incentives and the Socio-Spatial Dynamics of Water Sustainability. Work during the project will include examining cooperative behavior among water users and developing water conservation incentives.

Mason's DEVA project helps folks in Virginia breathe easier as research findings target air pollution sources and can shape clean air policies in the state.

Mechanical engineering seniors design a wheelchair that aids a veteran from a non-profit organization.

More than 100 PhD students from electrical and bioengineering, data science, computer science, neuroscience and the social sciences, including some with disabilities, will be trained to use state-of-the-art data analytic methods and wearable computing technologies based on novel transdisciplinary competencies, applications and practice curriculum.
