| Dr. Jason Lee Assistant Professor-in-Residence in the Department of Mechanical Engineering University of Connecticut
Dr. Jason Lee joined the University of Connecticut as an Assistant Professor-in-Residence in the Department of Mechanical Engineering in 2014. He received his B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley (2005), and his M.S. and Ph.D. from the University of Texas at Austin (2007 and 2010, respectively). Following his Ph.D. he joined the Institute for Solider Nanotechnologies at Massachusetts Institute of Technology as a postdoc. After a decade at UConn, Dr. Lee is now an associate professor-in-residence at the University of Connecticut's School of Mechanical, Aerospace, and Manufacturing Engineering.
He teaches thermal fluids, manufacturing, sports engineering, and project based capstone courses. He also serves as his university's mechanical engineering undergraduate director and its NASA Connecticut Space Grant Consortium campus director. He enjoys exploring different teaching modes and has taught both lecture and project-based courses in in-person, hybrid, and online formats. He works with undergraduate students on projects related to fluid dynamics and heat transfer for manufacturing processes, with a new focus on how these processes are influenced by microgravity environments. |
