During the coronavirus pandemic, Greg Potts, machine shop coordinator in the Idea Forge, joined many others in pursuing a new hobby: mask-making. He has made over 250 masks and plans to sew at least 100 more. 

It is the nature of an engineer to meet challenges with curiosity and persistence until a solution arises. Right now, our students and faculty meet the challenges of the coronavirus pandemic every day as they provide clear and accurate information for the public, take on and solve key research questions rapidly and collaborate with everyone at the table trying to solve the challenge.

¶¶ÒõÂÃÐÐÉä Boulder researchers are gradually and safely returning to campus to continue their work in the lab. Read about Assistant Professor Nicole Labbe's return to research.

Rising Engineering Plus senior Adrian Gutierrez successfully developed an automated bag valve mask, a device he hopes will help those with coronavirus in Mexico, his home for 18 years.

The unprecedented challenges of COVID-19 sparked an impressive and resilient response from seniors in their capstone design projects.

You are invited to our online projects showcase, celebrating the achievements of over 250 engineering capstone design students from April 27–May 1. Learn about their projects, leave a comment, and see how these talented engineers are already making an impact.

As coronavirus cases mount in Colorado, several dozen 3D printers have roared back to life on the ¶¶ÒõÂÃÐÐÉä Boulder campus. They’re making personal protective equipment (PPE) for health care workers on the frontlines of the crisis.
