This page contains information about the members of the Aerospace Robotics Laboratory: faculty, staff, current students, and lab graduates.
The students, who are mostly Ph.D. candidates, come from many fields in engineering. Current lab members are aerospace engineers, electrical engineers, mechanical engineers, and computer scientists. This diversity allows the members of the lab to draw upon one another's experiences to solve complicated problems.
While students are the ARL's greatest assets, its graduates are its greatest products. ARL graduates are making significant impacts in government, industry, and academia. When possible, the links below contain current contact information.
