Oct. 20, 2022 - Six College of Engineering faculty are among the 11 University of Nebraska-Lincoln faculty members selected to participate in the 15th cohort of the Office of Research and Economic Development's Research Development Fellows Program (RDFP).

RDFP is an eight-month program designed to provide full-time Nebraska faculty at the assistant-level rank the information and resources necessary to position themselves for success in securing external funding for their research, scholarship and creative activity. Fellows graduate from the program with an intentional plan for pursuing external funding and strategies that prepare them to write winning proposals.

The fellows, selected through a competitive application process, represent eight departments spanning three colleges and the Institute of Agriculture and Natural Resources. The College of Engineering faculty chosen for the 2022-23 cohort are:

• Jessica Deters, mechanical and materials engineering
• Mohammad Hasan, electrical and computer engineering
• Xiaoqi Liu, Durham School of Architectural Engineering and Construction
• Logan Perry, civil and environmental engineering
• Milad Roohi, Durham School of Architectural Engineering and Construction
• Jamilla Teixeira, civil and environmental engineering
