	Senior ready to launch his career and a company.     Like most seniors, Erik Limpaecher is hoping to end the year with several good job offers. Unlike most, he isn't looking for a job. With any luck, he will be making offers to fellow students to work for a company he is founding.     Limpaecher, an electrical engineering major, is developing a device that improves the quality of electricity for businesses and industries that increasingly require clean, reliable power to run sensitive equipment. As other students focus on finishing senior theses, Limpaecher, who already is collaborating with four other seniors, will be seeking his first round of venture financing and hiring a management team. Current news and events Releases to the media Weekly Bulletin Calendar of events       His company, Power Silence, is based on technology for which he and his father obtained a patent in September, and which he further developed in an engineering class last semester. The real impetus, however, came when Limpaecher took the course "High Tech Entrepreneurship" taught by longtime entrepreneur Ed Zschau. The course is offered jointly by the departments of electrical engineering and of operations research and financial engineering. • Electrical Engineering home page • Operations Research and Financial Engineering home page		Dorm room serves as proverbial entrepreneur's garage and boardroom for a company Limpaecher is founding to market a device that improves the quality of electricity.
