Biography

Dr. Jenna Kloosterman received her PhD in 2014 at the University of Arizona in Tucson, AZ. She completed a NASA Postdoctoral Program Fellowship at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, CA in 2016 and then worked there as an RF Engineer until joining the engineering and physics faculties at the University of Southern Indiana in Evansville, IN in 2017. She started as an Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering at Cal Poly in 2024. Her research interest is in developing Terahertz technology to the study star formation process and the lifecycle of the Interstellar Medium in the Milky Way and nearby galaxies. She has worked on multi-pixel ground-based and balloon-based heterodyne receivers using superconducting detectors.

As the daughter of two teachers, Dr. Kloosterman grew up in a household that values education and the life-long pursuit of knowledge. She has taught courses and corresponding laboratories in physics, freshman engineering, circuits,  and capstone senior design and developed new courses and laboratories in engineering electromagnetics and communication systems. She enjoys learning from her students as much as teaching them.
