Ari Pignatelli takes part in 2015 Summer Undergraduate Research Experience Program

2015 Sep 3

The State University of New York at New Paltz Summer Undergraduate Research Experience (SURE) Program is an eight week, full time research opportunity that encourages faculty-student collaboration.

During the summer of 2015, Ari Pignatelli of Rexford, NY completed a research project entitled "Numerical Analysis of Air Infiltration/Exfiltration through Automated Sliding Doors on a Commercial Low-Rise Building During a Single Door Opening Event."

SURE program participants conduct faculty-mentored research or creative activities in order to expand their knowledge and gain valuable scholastic experience.

Upon completion of their various projects, students present their research to an audience of faculty, staff and students during a major fall semester event. This helps students develop additional skills communicating their research and responding to questions.
