Do you ever need to run a careful experiment but it takes too long or you need to continually move your transducers and don’t want to recalibrate your position every time? Build a robot to do it for you! Come learn how this Friday as Colby gives us a brief introduction to automated testing in the lab.
We will also spend a few minutes at the start of the hour discussing courses available this fall that are relevant to acoustics students.

The Acoustical AMA series allows current students to meet with acoustical professionals in an informal setting and pick their brains concerning all things acoustics and related career paths.

Quantifying Uncertainty in Experimental Measurements
Presenter: Randy Williams
Friday, March 23 at 3 PM in ETC 4.150
No matter the measurement, there is always uncertainty. But by understanding the sources of uncertainty, how they affect each other, and how to quantify them you can make much stronger claims from your measurement (and maybe even convince other scientists as well!) Come hear Randy give us an introduction into the world of uncertainty quantification in this week’s Grad Skills Seminar.
