Briar Goldwyn is researching multi-hazard housing safety and disaster risk reduction at CU Boulder. She recently returned from fieldwork in Puerto Rico and has been active there for years.
Riley McGill is a sophomore who has been helping build a small, six-legged robot in Professor Kaushik Jayaram’s Animal Inspired Motion and Robotics Lab.
A new publication headed by the Mortenson Center in Global Engineering seeks to create better alignment among academic programs and sector needs when it comes to training engineers in global development.
Most mechanical engineers will work with materials such as metals, polymers, ceramics and composites during their careers. However, a course taught in CU Boulder's mechanical engineering department asks students to draw inspiration from another material—snow.
CU Boulder's College of Engineering and Applied Science is leading a groundbreaking new international research network. The work is aimed at understanding how animals use information from odors in their environment to guide behavior and has far-ranging implications for our understanding of the human brain.
A free event will bring together companies and students from around the state to discuss diversity-related issues in construction, build empathy within the workforce and bring forward solutions to help construction employers and employees navigate the industry.
Zoya Popovic of electrical, computer and energy engineering was honored “for developing high-efficiency microwave transmitters and active antenna arrays for wireless communication systems and for engineering education.â€
The Early Engineering Exposure Fair, organized by mechanical engineering graduate students, was comprised of 16 interactive exhibits to demonstrate diverse engineering fields such as air quality, wind energy, robotics and microfluids.
A new documentary series looks at how nature can help humanity solve some of the world’s biggest problems, and one of the episodes features a Paul M. Rady Department of Mechanical Engineering professor.
Researchers at CU Boulder are developing an app that could reliably and quickly predict whether batches of concrete made at construction sites are safe. If successful, the work could usher in a new era of building that is faster, more cost effective and safe.
