Society for Advanced Rocket Propulsion (SARP)
Jacob Sawyer is currently working as a Research Intern at UW SPACE Lab, where Jacob is focused on designing mechanical and thermal models of a Pulsed Inductive Thruster. Prior to this, Jacob served as Project Manager and Structures Engineer/Fins Project Lead at Society for Advanced Rocket Propulsion (SARP), overseeing the design process of fins on a large liquid bi-propellant rocket. In addition, Jacob also worked as a Research Engineering Intern at Eagle Harbor Technologies, Inc., where Jacob reassembled a custom vacuum chamber to UHV standards and implemented cost-cutting measures for refurbishment processes. Jacob is currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science degree in Aerospace, Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering at the University of Washington.

Society for Advanced Rocket Propulsion (SARP)
The Society for Advanced Rocket Propulsion (SARP) is a group of student engineers at the University of Washington committed to designing, building, and launching an advanced hybrid sounding rocket every year. We compete in the annual Spaceport America Cup in New Mexico, in which over 100 student teams from around the world compete with their rockets. We compete in the most technically challenging category: student researched and developed hybrid motor with an altitude goal of 30,000 feet above ground level. Our team consists of over 100 undergraduate students from many different majors, including aeronautics & astronautics, mechanical, chemical, electrical, and computer engineering as well as other non-engineering majors.
