Ellen Carpenter serves as Associate Professor and Director of Undergraduate Programs in the Department of Psychology at Virginia Commonwealth University. Her academic profile uniquely bridges developmental psychology and advanced materials science.
Her educational background includes:
- Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Oberlin College
- Master of Science in Sport Psychology from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
- Doctor of Philosophy in Human Factors Psychology from Old Dominion University
Dr. Carpenter's research spans two distinct domains:
- Psychology: Physical activity's impact on working memory in aging populations; classroom pedagogy innovations in assessment, engagement, and technology-cognition interactions
- Materials Science: Magnetocaloric materials, thermoelectric alloys, and nanoparticle synthesis for energy applications
Analysis of her 15 most recent publications (2016-2025) reveals a strong emphasis on energy conversion technologies:
- Optimization of magnetocaloric effects in perovskite oxides
- Room-temperature additive manufacturing of microchanneled structures
- Non-rare earth magnetic nanoparticle development
- Thermoelectric Cu-Ni alloy processing
No major scientific awards are documented in available materials. As Director of Undergraduate Programs, she oversees curriculum development and student advising while maintaining active research in both psychology and materials science domains.
