Member Database
You may access our member database, including contact information and technical areas of interest. This list is a useful resource for those who are interested in collaborating with CAV members on potential sponsored research projects.
Student Thesis Database
We maintain a searchable database of Penn State Ph.D. and M.S. theses in acoustics and vibration. You can find links to PDFs of most of the theses in the database. We will continue to add other theses as students graduate.
