The Easiest Way to Start Research


"Project Lever exemplifies the very best in educational technology thinking and design. It's a simple, brilliantly executed idea that could have a very real impact on college campuses."

-Glenn B. Magid, Harvard, Assistant Dean of Advising

Better research for all

Students

More time spent on research, less on searching for resources

Faculty

Better student-advisor match helps to optimize faculty investment into the right student.

Universities

All university content, aggregated and organized in a matter of weeks, not months or years.

What Everyone's Saying

Project Lever is a tool that's gaining traction among numerous major universities who have heard for years how students struggle to find mentors and advisors for academic projects.

Students at the School of General Studies will have an easier time finding grant opportunities and accessing faculty research with a new website, ProjectLever, which was launched this month.

Though professors may spend their weeks lecturing, meeting with students, and mentoring advisees, much of their work outside of the classroom remains a mystery to most students.

Research Interests

Analytical, Physical, & Environmental Chemistry. The Kenny research group is focused on the uses of multidimensional fluorescence to solve analytical problems in the environment as well as the fundamental photophysics of fluorescence spectroscopy. Past projects have ranged from detecting pollution in groundwater to supersonic jet spectroscopy to calculation of the effects of greenhouse gases on global climate. Present projects include photophysics of oxygen quenching of fluorescence, development of portable instruments for multidimensional fluorescence measurement, and developing chemometric methods to analyze three-way data to characterize dissolved organic matter in natural waters and other complex mixtures.
