Congratulations to MES student Jordan Carlson who recently received the Offshore Energy Research Association (OERA) Research Travel Award!
The objective of this program is to cultivate collaborations between Nova Scotian student researchers and international research facilities or laboratories that will contribute to advancing the offshore energy sector here in Nova Scotia and in building research capacity for the province.
The funding is awarded to support student travel to/from relevant field schools, relevant courses and other learning opportunities as approved by OERA management.
To aid in his thesis research, Jordan plans to take a tidal energy course at Queen’s University Belfast in Northern Ireland to gain hands-on experience at the University’s small scale tidal energy lab and testing facility.
Jordan is also a recipient of a Nova Scotia Graduate Scholarship; he is co-supervised by Dr. Michelle Adams (SRES) and Dr. Bruce Hatcher (Cape Breton University).
Full Media Release available on OERA’s website.
