USEV collaboration and Tiger Prowl

This summer, student members of Clemson’s HFES chapter collaborated with US Engine Valve (USEV). Together, we produced a thorough ergonomics assessment of their plant in Westminster, SC. Our CUHFES team members presented their findings to USEV yesterday, and it went great! We want to thank Clay Murphy and his team at USEV for the amazing opportunity they have provided us. We had a great time and we hope to continue working together soon!

On August 16, CUHFES officers Dan Quinn, Scott Betza, Will Leidheiser, and Drea Fekety represented our chapter at Clemson’s Tiger Prowl event. Tiger Prowl is an annual event for new students to learn about campus organizations, and it was an excellent opportunity for us to showcase CUHFES’s work and recruit new members. We’re looking forward to next year’s event!
