I contributed my theoretical and software knowledge from CEE 4540 by taking the lead on system design calculations and data processing on MathCAD. I also devoted extra time and effort into learning and practicing the practical skills required to build and troubleshoot our experimental setup. For example, I took the initiative to download Process Controller onto my computer and practice computer and practiced doing the online tutorial in order to familiarize myself with the interface. I also checked in on experiments frequently and took pictures to document the qualitative observations from our experiments.
