The Andlinger Center for Energy and the Environment has selected four graduate students from across Princeton to participate in the 2023-2024 New Jersey Wind Institute Fellowship. The four students include Avery Barnett, a graduate student pursuing a Ph.D. in public affairs; Nicholas Conlin, a graduate student in mechanical and aerospace engineering; Mian Liao, a graduate student in electrical and computer engineering; and Hannah Hata Williams, a graduate student in mechanical and aerospace engineering. 

The selected fellows will carry out research projects to tackle timely challenges facing the growing offshore wind industry, from characterizing winds in coastal boundary layers to understanding the resilience of offshore wind technologies to extreme weather events along the Atlantic coast.

They will also present their findings at an Offshore Wind Energy Symposium, which will take place at the end of the spring 2024 semester.
