Two Brookdale Community College Engineering students created a prosthetic hand to qualify as a designer for e-NABLE, a national organization of volunteers who make free upper limb prosthetics for those in need, particularly children.
Professor of Engineering and Technology Lisa Hailey introduced the 3D printer to her students at the beginning of the semester. She offered to help them with any special projects they wanted to do. At the end of the semester, two students approached her. Both graduated in May from Brookdale’s Chemical Engineering program. Anjeli Santillan, who received the STEM Outstanding Student Award, will continue her studies in biomedical. Mason Brown is continuing his studies in chemical engineering, and both are transferring to the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) which Brookdale has an articulation agreement.
