What Our Students Say

What Our Students Say

testimonial-nilufer

The College Bound eMentoring Program helped to find my career. Now, I am thinking about double majoring in college, probably neuroscience and computer science. I am dealing with a lot of biology, and I have been doing a lot of research about biology and technology, I was also thinking about computer science as well. So this program helped me to find my passion, and it also helped me to find a career pathway.

It is pretty fun. I would like to go to the coding course again, it is very fun and exciting.

Efe

STUDENT
testimonial-kerem

For me, it really helped me get into the University of California Santa Cruse which has one of the highest bio-engineering programs to get into. The program helped me because I had a project where I looked at certain genomes and certain cancer cases. I presented that to a Stanford community. I had mentors from Stanford University that helped me as well. The project became like my first print on the world.

Kerem

STUDENT
testimonial-omer

It was an incredible experience for me because it showed me that coding and robotics can be so much fun. I would not say that it was just an experience and passed, it actually became part of my life I would say. I would recommend the program to several people because it is more than a learning experience. It is a fun and enlightening experience.

CHRIS ROGERS

Chris Rogers Professor and Chair of Mechanical Engineering at Tufts University

 

His research interests are:

Engineering Education, Robotics, and Musical Instrument Design

 

Education

Ph., D Mechanical Engineering, Stanford University
M.S., Mechanical Engineering, Stanford University
B.S., Mechanical Engineering, Stanford University

 

Biography

Chris Rogers earned his B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. in mechanical engineering at Stanford University, where he worked with Professor John Eaton on his thesis on particle motion in a boundary layer flow. Rogers joined the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Tufts School of Engineering in 1989. He is involved in a number of research areas, including particle-laden flows (a continuation of his thesis), telerobotics and controls, the slurry flows in chemical-mechanical planarization, the engineering of musical instruments, measuring flame shapes of couch fires, measuring fruit-fly locomotion, and engineering education (kindergarten to college). At Tufts, Rogers has exercised his strong commitment to teaching by exploring a number of new directions, including teaching robotics with LEGO bricks and teaching manufacturing by building musical instruments. His teaching work extends to the elementary school level, where he talks with over 1,000 teachers around the world every year on methods of introducing young children to engineering.
