Students' work used in scam to fool NASA

Image...
Dr Masoud Samandi says the high-tech company he went to work for in Arizona - Materials and Electrochemical Research Corporation - submitted false claims to win research grants from the US departments of Energy and Defense as well as from NASA.

According to Dr Samandi, several of the grants won from the US Department of Energy were obtained by plagiarized data from projects carried out years earlier in Australia by his former engineering students.

    Awesome, please, do waste more money.
