- The University of Colorado Boulder's ¶¶ÒõÂÃÐÐÉäbit Quantum Initiative today welcomed the first four strategic industry allies to formally join as ¶¶ÒõÂÃÐÐÉäbit Innovation Partners: Atom Computing, ColdQuanta, Meadowlark Optics and SPIE, the international society for optics and photonics.
- The new show looks at how animals can help humanity solve some of the world's biggest problems, which leads biologists to Professor Kaushik Jayaram. His research group is developing robots inspired by one of nature's greatest survivors – cockroaches.
- Professor Sean Humbert, an expert in micro robotics and systems design, will help the Microsystems Exploratory Council identify new research avenues as it relates to Department of Defense and national security issues.
- Alumnus Michael Lewis (MechEngr’00) took an interdisciplinary education to the next level. After graduating with a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering and working at Boeing for a year, he discovered another way to help people – through medicine.
- The racial reckoning in summer 2020 led to an awakening in our consciousness – a need for everyone to look inward and tackle our own unconscious biases. Professor Janet Tsai is asking students to question these preconceived notions when it comes to mechanical engineering as well.
- The Rocky Mountain Seminar Series provides ¶¶ÒõÂÃÐÐÉä Boulder faculty, staff and students with the opportunity to hear from researchers across disciplines from various institutions.
- Professor Shelly Miller shares her recent research about COVID-19 transmission with The Conversation.
- Studying emergent behavior has long fascinated engineers, and researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder just uncovered a distinct behavior in colonies of fire ants cooperating in flood situations.
- The 2021-22 Distinguished Seminar Series gives students, faculty and others the opportunity to learn from seven impressive mechanical engineering thought-leaders.
- U.S. News and World Report ranked the Paul M. Rady Department of Mechanical Engineering's undergraduate program 18th among public universities.
