My name is Paxton Schroeder and I am a sophomore Industrial Engineering & Operations Analytics student at the University of Arkansas. I am interested in doing research with the Industrial Engineering Department or serving as a teaching assistant. I have previously coauthored two academic papers with the Electrical Engineering Department. Through that experience, I learned to utilize new 3D printing techniques to create complex geometries out of composite material then debind & sinter to produce metal objects. After I complete my undergraduate degree, I plan to attend graduate school and work in consulting or operations research.
