ASSIST recently held its annual Industry Meeting on January 18-19, 2018 at the Duke Energy Hall in Hunt Library. Despite adverse weather and several inches of snow, more than 60 participants were able to join in person, with another several dozen participating online. These participants came from industry program member companies and the ASSIST Center partner universities. Faculty and students from NC State, Penn State, University of Virginia, Florida International University, and University of Utah persevered despite travel challenges to present in person. The importance of this event was to communicate ASSIST’s advances and achievements to its members and sponsors through numerous demonstrations and panel discussions.
Below is the list of ASSIST students who presented that day. You can find their presentations, along with faculty presentations & WebEx Recordings on our website.
