Natural fibers from plants such as industrial hemp provide a renewable high-quality commodity that has the potential to enhance New Jersey agriculture and provide economic benefits for a wide variety of industries and small businesses in the state. Both established and emerging industries can benefit from industrial hemp by supplementing or entirely replacing petroleum-based products with those based on natural fibers while sequestering significant quantities of carbon from the atmosphere (Cherney (...)

The goal of the project is to fabricate and test a humidity and gas sensor based on the response of single layer graphene to the adsorption of different molecules. The students will learn to synthesize graphene using chemical vapor deposition and then transfer the graphene layers onto a Si wafer capped with a SiO2 layer. They will proceed to fabricate a device to demonstrate humidity and gas sensing by using the change of the electrical resistance in response to various molecules. Finally the studentys (...)

The SOCIOARC project focuses on the connections between social life and the built environment. It is a collaborative project led by scholars from Landscape Architecture (Anita Bakshi) and Sociology (Zaire Dinzey-Flores). Together we working on a book, a podcast, and a digital resource for design school curriculum and practice.
The built environment informs social life. And in turn, social life is informed by the built environment. Yet they are often studied, developed, and addressed in (...)
