Arlington, TX. (July, 8, 2020) – On the campus of the University of Texas at Arlington, Alex Johnston (PhD Student) in blue and his younger brother Cameron Johnston (a Sophomore EE student) work on the first full assembly of the testbed they designed to study the surface flashover potential of high voltage insulators. Alex and Cameron are leading the Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD) Naval Engineering Education Consortium (NEEC) effort. The NEEC cultivates an excellent naval engineering workforce through student participation in funded project-based hands-on research conducted at colleges and universities. “The NEEC program is unique in that we are working with NSWCDD and engineers from NSWCDD rather than just sponsors from the Office of Naval Research Science and Technology,” said Dr. David Alan Wetz, who heads up the NEEC program at NSWCDD. “The interaction and excitement of working with NSWCDD has really gotten the students excited. Knowing that the focus is on students, it allows me to let this type of student work on it and to grow with it as opposed to feeling pressure to put an experienced student on it simply to produce a result,” said Wetz.
