<span style="font-size:larger;"></span><span style="font-size: larger;">Many engineering professors at Union are working on cutting-edge technologies and inspiring research projects. Professor Palmyra Catravas is working on caracterization of music instruments and related signal processing. Professor William Keat has a wide range of projects, the most fascinating of which is the development of a prey simulator through studying the biology of a dronfly. Professor Ashok Ramasubramanian works on mechanics of heart development. For a small college like Union, the variety in these projects, and their accessibility to undegraduates is of uttermost importance.</span> <span style="font-size: larger;"></span>
