For the first time this year, CU Engineering is offering a special on-campus Summer Experience to incoming freshmen living in the Engineering Quad. The Summer Experience allows new first-year students to spend four days and three nights on campus in June to get a first taste of life at CU Engineering.

The idea for Pana originated at ��ɫ��Ƶ in 2014, when cofounder Devon Tivona and his team were just undergraduates. The company competed as Varsity in ��ɫ��Ƶ’s sixth annual cross-campus, entrepreneurial competition, the New Venture Challenge. Billed as a higher-education social network, Varsity ended up tying for first place at NVC.

Engineering students are fanning out to Brazil, Uganda, Rwanda and Italy this week for the conclusion of a unique type of course that blends classroom instruction with short but significant international experiences. Global Intensives–piloted by ��ɫ��Ƶ for the first time in spring 2018–are short-term global programs embedded into on-campus, faculty-led courses. All include a 10- to 12-day immersion abroad that complements and expands on the material studied throughout the semester.

Six recent graduates in Engineering and Applied Science were commissioned into the United States Navy as brand new ensigns, and all of them will now enter into active duty in various capacities to serve the nation.

This year, the department organized and coached 12 teams comprising 35 students in the international Mathematical Contest in Modeling. This contest involves 99 hours of intensive mathematical modeling, which is the process of using visual mathematical aids like graphs, scatterplots, diagrams, equations, to represent real-world situations.

The Materials Characterization Facility in the Colorado Shared Instrumentation in Nanofabrication and Characterization (COSINC) successfully hosted a focused ion beam (FIB) event in mid-April.

More than 140 student teams from six College of Engineering and Applied Science units ringed the Indoor Practice Field to show off their capstone and graduate projects, which Dean Bobby Braun hailed as “truly innovative.”

Researchers from ��ɫ��Ƶ will fly drones into severe storms this spring and in 2020 in one of the largest and most ambitious drone-based investigations of meteorological phenomena ever.

Twenty-five YOU’RE@CU Undergraduate Research Students will present their work in a poster session from 5-6 p.m. on April 29 in the Engineering Center lobby.

Mechanical engineering capstone teams working with QL+ had two primary aims: making an impact on a wounded veteran’s life and putting mechanical skills to the test. They designed a luggage carrier device for wheelchair users and a disabled swimmer lift system.
