Jesse Batson

I am a 2017 Masters graduate at Boston University majoring in Mechanical Engineering, with a concentration in Aerospace Engineering and a minor in Astronomy. In the summer of 2015, I was an assistant with the MAVEN (Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution mission) program at Boston University, where I helped process and analyze data taken from mars atmosphere! I currently work in the MAVEN lab, but I have also obtained another research position where I work with orbital dynamics and parameters of CubeSats produced at Boston University.I hope to one day obtain a PhD in aerospace/astronautical sciences or fluid dynamics, so that I may conduct my own research and apply it to improve aircraft and spacecraft.
