Welcome to Microelectronics Lab at MNSU Mankato

Name: Olabode Ajayi.
I am a senior year student in the ECET department, studying Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering as double majors, with minors in Mathematics and Computer Science. I am a big sports fan and I enjoy geeking out about soccer during my leisure time. My role in the lab revolved around the development and the design of the wafers used in this research with guidance from Dr. Hamari and Dr. Bhushan.

Abdelrahman Elkhatib is a Senior Electrical Engineering Student at Minnesota State University. He is currently working as an Electrical Design Engineer intern at Collins Electrical, Inc. A consistent honor student and a dean's lister in his academics, his greatest asset is his productivity and his commitment to excellence in the field of electrical engineering. He has a passion for outdoor recreation and sports, such as soccer, diving, and running. He is also a community worker at Laurels Peak Rehabilitation Center, which facilitates senior citizens. Abdelrahman supports initiatives towards sustainable and green energy. His dream is to contribute something to the community to create sustainable and renewable sources of energy. My primary responsibility in the lab is to develop designs, facilitate work, and communicate with co-researchers to determine project feasibility and future product developments.

Hi, I’m Shristi, a graduate electrical engineering student at Minnesota State University, Mankato. I also finished my undergrad from Minnesota State University in 2019. My hobbies include singing, cooking, and hiking with my friends. In Microelectronic research, my role is to help ensure fabrication of efficient fuel cells by creating sample solutions and electrospinning the same to obtain standard polymer fibers which can be used as different components in Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFCs).
