Two Montana State University students receive NSF research fellowships

May 30, 2008

Two graduate students in the same Montana State University department have received research fellowships from the National Science Foundation.

Christopher Colson and Sarah (Grochowski) Lukes, both working on their doctorates in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, will each receive up to $121,000 over three years. Colson, who used to be a nuclear engineer officer on a submarine, will focus on power systems related to alternative energy. Lukes, who was MSU's top engineering student in 2005, will work to improve the focus controls on optical instruments used in surgery.
