Matthew Amodea of Nesquehoning, a member of the class of 2023 majoring in robotics engineering at Worcester Polytechnic Institute, was a member of a student team that recently completed an intense research project titled Establishing IQP Partner Relationships in Prague.

At WPI, all undergraduates are required to complete a research-driven, professional-level project that applies science and technology to addresses an important societal need or issue. About two-thirds of students complete a project at one of the university’s 50-plus off-campus project centers, which are located around the world.
