Student Assistants
Introduction | Background | Director | Assistant Director | Technical Manager | Student Assistants | Educational Benefits | Utilities in the Area | Regions Serviced by IAC 

 

The UF IAC employs both graduate and undergraduate student assistants from various engineering departments. This allows for a broad understanding of manufacturing processes and the development of creative solutions and recommendations.

Each audit team is composed of a faculty member, a student team leader and two or three engineering students. The IAC Director or the Assistant Director are in charge of the site visit and the final analysis and report. The student team leader is responsible for organizing the site visit, collecting data, and preparations of the final report, under the direct supervision of the IAC Director or Assistant Director. At least two students assist in conducting each site visit, performing the energy analysis, developing the assessment recommendations, and preparing the reports.

Both students and faculty benefit from the industrial experience that the UF IAC operation provides. This results in more relevant engineering material being taught in classes and students receiving hands on experience in energy use and manufacturing technologies.
