Huge congratulations to Georgia Southern University engineering student and McNair Scholar Lukas Marlow! ✨

Lukas earned international recognition by taking 3rd place in the Undergraduate Poster Competition at the ASME IMECE conference in Memphis, TN.

His research focused on solving sealing challenges in supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO₂) power generation systems, a cutting-edge technology for next-generation energy production.

Adding to his achievements, Lukas was also named Georgia Southern’s McNair Scholar of the Year for the 2025–2026 academic year! Under the mentorship of Dr. Sevki Cesmeci and doctoral student Mohammad “Fuad” Hassan, Lukas is a prime example of the incredible impact that hands-on undergraduate research has on our students. 🦅
