As a MEMS Engineer at the MEMS and Nanotechnology Exchange, Kenneth (Kip)
Pettigrew is responsible for providing MEMS design and microfabrication
expertise to our customers. Kip received a BS in Mechanical Engineering
from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in 1999. He then
continued on to complete his Masters degree from the University of
California at Berkeley in 2002. During his graduate work Kip designed and
fabricated functional MEMS based capillary pumped loops to provide
integrated electronic cooling. He then continued on as a MEMS engineer
for U.C. Berkeley where he designed and built a variety of MEMS fluidic,
heat transfer, and sensors. Before joining the MEMS and Nanotechnology
Exchange, Kip spent 3 years in industry developing and fabricating now
patented micro-fluidic devices, surface modification technologies for MEMS
applications, and automatable interfaces for heat and fluidic MEMS
technologies.
