Sage is putting Geoscience on the map—literally!

Working with mentors Kashif Mahmud and Jonathan Price, Sage is creating a georeferenced digital map of the 400-acre Camp Perkins. By documenting natural features and historical landmarks, this project provides a vital tool for the Boy Scouts of America to improve land management and community engagement.

Go Sage!!

Ricardo and Shishir are pushing the limits of Computer Science! Working with mentor Eduardo Colmenares, they are exploring how GPU-accelerated deep learning can make image classification, such as distinguishing between cats and dogs, faster and more efficient. Using high-performance systems like TACC Lonestar, they’re showing just how much heavy-duty computation is required for a computer to "understand" even a single image.

Melody is bridging the gap between history and language! Working with mentor Jackson Pearson, her research analyzes Spanish and Spanish-American perspectives on the early United States. By looking at the era from the War for Independence to the Louisiana Purchase, Melody explores how these global powers viewed the "fragility" of the young American experiment.

Mckinzie is diving into the psychology and sociology behind student life! Working with mentors, Drs. Nicholas Maxwell, Michael Vandehey, and Beverly Stiles. Her research explores the emotional complexities of college hookup culture. From self-esteem to peer influence, McKinzie’s work investigates the real emotional outcomes, like belongingness versus regret, behind modern social trends.

The Celebration of Scholarship forum has come to an end; however, our Meet the Scholars series will go on. We're so proud of all of our EURECA scholars!

José is bridging the gap between Finance and Technology! Working with mentors Dr. Pablo Garcia-Fuentes and Alejandro Mackay Juhl, his research compares traditional portfolio diversification with AI clustering methods. By moving away from standard Markowitz frameworks, José is testing whether AI can create more effective and lower-risk asset groupings.
