Opportunities at the BDRL

Graduate and Undergraduate Student Opportunities

Students pursuing a Masters or PhD  in Mechanical Engineering, Mechanics, or Biomechanics have the unique opportunity to research such topics as: medical device evaluation/development, musculoskeletal dysfunction, hand function/dysfunction, decubitus ulcer prevention, seating and posture, and much more. 

Opportunities for undergraduates include: summer internships and hourly employment, during any of the Fall, Spring, or Summer semesters.  Undergraduates will work on their own individual projects that will center around one of the biomechanics topics currently being researched. 

Medical Student Opportunities

As our research combines engineering and biomechanics, medical students can take advantage of working closely with our BDRL personnel.

Volunteer Opportunities

The BRDL is always open to volunteers to participate in our studies and experiments.

 

Please contact Dr. Tamara Reid Bush for additional information on any of the above opportunities, or others that may not be listed.
