by | Aug 12, 2022 | 5 Ag Stories, News

Iowa State University is known for working with their students and presenting them with amazing real-world experiences through the college. ISU agronomists and engineers are working together to create an innovative in-field research chamber to study climate change on soybeans.

Professor Practice at Iowa State University, James Heise talks about what the innovative in-field research chamber is and what they are wanting to accomplish with the chamber.

Heise mentions his perspective on the chamber as a mechanical engineer.

Finding industries and programs to conduct projects with is a lot harder than it may seem. Heise talks about their process through the Capstone Program at ISU in finding Dr. Singh to conduct their current chamber research project.

Heise talks about the Capstone Program and how they find funding and support from places other than Iowa State. He also mentions how good these opportunities are for not only the program but also the students.
