PhD candidates Victoria Christensen, Nicky Han, Maddie McAllister and Scott Berens along with Professors Matt Begley, Carlos Levi and Frank Zok toured Pratt & Whitney's new facility dedicated to development and low-rate production of ceramic composites for aerospace applications. The tour and accompanying discussions proved to be excellent learning opportunities for all students, young and not-so-young. The visit was motivated by ongoing research activities within the Pratt & Whitney Center of Excellence in Composites at UCSB.
