Throughout Lieutenant Colonel Michael Wissemann’s educational journey as an undergraduate and graduate student, he never regarded himself as a standout student. That was until he was awarded the US Army War College Distinguished Graduate distinction, attributing much of his success to Penn State.
David Starling, associate professor of physics at Penn State Hazleton, has been working toward the development of a quantum computer — a device that promises to deliver huge increases in processing power and outstrip even the most powerful of today’s (and tomorrow’s) supercomputers.

His hope? The computers can someday help solve complex problems affecting human society, like the COVID-19 pandemic.
Several Penn State Hazleton faculty and alumni will be featured as panelists in November at a virtual symposium for young women who may be interested in science, technology, engineering and math.
All Penn State students are urged to take advantage of COVID-19 testing, at no cost to the student, prior to the shift to completely remote learning on November 20. Penn State Hazleton will take place November 16 and 17 in the main gym of the Physical Education Building.
