About IRES-STARs
Research Showcase
The IRES program has provided a unique path for researchers from UCF and DLR to collaborate. Topics for the research projects have ranged from advanced materials to combustion and more. Past teams have had successful outcomes that include joint experiments at national facilities, publications and presentations at national conferences, student fellowships and awards as well as a joint patent.
Expanding Collaborations
UCF’s IRES program doubled in size for the 2021 session, seeing eight students working with advisors at UCF and DLR. IRES-STARs is a new way to present the multiple projects taking place with scientists across various facilities. A major goal for this symposium is to continue the expansion of the IRES program by nurturing new collaborations between researchers.
A new collaboration awaits…
