Assistant professor of electrical, computer and energy engineering plans to explore how all of machine learning and other data can be used to control systems — from robotic networks to the power grid.

A new program guides engineering students on an “entrepreneurial journey to learn the business side of innovation." The ESCEND program combines entrepreneurship courses with experiences and resources that give ��ƷSM����ӰƬ engineering students the chance to create a product and then pitch it to investors.

The ��ƷSM����ӰƬ and the Colorado Community College System have signed an agreement that streamlines the transfer process for engineering students. ��ƷSM����ӰƬ is the first in the state to offer a civil engineering transfer program.

Assistant Professor Mija Hubler is a recipient of a three year, $548,000 National Science Foundation (NSF) Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) award for her proposal “Mechanical Modeling of Living Building Materials for Structural Applications.”

Two ��ƷSM����ӰƬ professors have been elected to the National Academy of Engineering, one of the highest honors an engineer can receive in their career.

Assistant Professor C. Wyatt Shields IV is the recipient of a National Science Foundation (NSF) Faculty Early Career Development Program (CAREER) award for his proposal “Shape-Encoded Electrokinetic Particles for Multiplexed Biosensing.” This project seeks to develop a new method of early identification of disease biomarkers, while also facilitating outreach and education to students at Northglenn High School.

The effort is part of an initiative funded by the National Science Foundation called Geotechnical Extreme Events Reconnaissance, which deploys researchers to disaster sites around the world.

ATLAS PhD student Purnendu has been helping develop soft, wearable devices, such as wristbands, rings and gloves, that deliver just the right level of haptic feedback to a wearer in response to contact with an object in virtual or augmented reality.

Science and creativity went hand in hand at University Hill Elementary School thanks to researchers from the Toney Group and graduate students from the Theatre & Dance Program. The collaborative project taught third graders about STEM subjects through art, music and dance activities.

Recently created by an anonymous donor, the Karl Gustafson Endowed Chair of Quantum Engineering will be embedded in the Department of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering. It is intended for a faculty member with multidisciplinary research and teaching interests, who is focused on the hardware side of quantum computing and devices.
