EMCC STUDENT, FACULTY COLLABORATE TO BUILD PROSTHETIC HAND FOR CHILD

EMCC STUDENT, FACULTY COLLABORATE TO BUILD PROSTHETIC HAND FOR CHILD

John Hughes, a Fulton Schools mechanical engineering student who transferred from Estrella Mountain Community College, used 3D printing to create a series of prosthetic hands for a growing eight-year-old Noah Muns as a project in his Physics II class. Hughes finished his coursework at EMCC in the spring, but even after classes ended for the summer he was still hard at work perfecting Noah’s prosthetic. He continues to mentor current EMCC engineering students so they can build new prosthetics as Noah grows.
