How the Unemployment Rate in Spain affects University Enrollment
This thesis studies the subsequent labor market outcomes of college graduates during an economic recession in Spain over the years 2000-2012. I use data on undergraduate enrollment, unemployment, national income, and educational spend from the Spanish National Institute of Statistics, the CIA World Fact Book, Spain’s Ministry of Education, and World Bank to run regression analyses and the Granger Causality Test. I find that university enrollment and unemployment rate are positively correlated. Regression results show that for every one percent increase in unemployment, enrollment increases by approximately 7,429 students

A Bayesian Estimator for Linear Calibration Error Effects in Thermal Remote Sensing
The Bayesian Land Surface Temperature estimator previously developed has been
extended to include the effects of imperfectly known gain and offset
calibration errors. It is possible to treat both gain and offset as nuisance
parameters and, by integrating over an uninformative range for their
magnitudes, eliminate the dependence of surface temperature and emissivity
estimates upon the exact calibration error.Comment: 3 page
Capturing Memory
In my work, I present the moments of true emotional clarity and impactful memories from my life. I strive to provide insight into my experiences and my understanding of others’ motivations. The creative process helps safely guide me through memories of the past and understanding of others.

I also incorporate found objects and paints to communicate the layers and varied depth of memories. With the use of these varied materials, I have developed a personal symbolic language that allows me to relay aspects of my life and perceptions. My goal is to explore my past and invite the viewer into my experiences
