Research Initiatives
At the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering, we are uncovering pathways to new properties, new behaviors and new materials that will shape the future of computation, communication and energy resilience. These initiatives embedded in our curriculum and research will impact engineering beyond the lab—each discovery and insight is a building block toward tomorrow's technologies.
Quantum Science & Engineering (QSE)
Our researchers are working at the frontier of quantum computing, communication, and sensing, drawing on unique strengths in cryogenics, materials, optics, and high magnetic fields. By partnering with national labs, and leading universities, we are positioning the College as a hub for innovation in quantum technologies.
Artificial Intelligence (AI)
More information coming soon.
With a strong foundation in quantum research and with new funding from the NSF, the college is poised to become a leader in quantum research and scientific discovery. Building upon a major investment by Florida A&M University (FAMU) and Florida State University (FSU) and ongoing quantum research by several faculty members, the college recently received a boost from the federal government. Collaborations with national labs and industry partners ensure that students will gain cutting-edge experience and be prepared to lead in quantum technologies.

Featured Facilities
Resilient Infrastructure & Disaster Response Center
The RIDER Center promotes all-embracing and equitable disaster resilience for vulnerable populations and probes the underlying causes of disaster vulnerability in communities. This is done while accounting for infrastructure characteristics and social needs.
High-Performance Materials Institute
The multidisciplinary High-Performance Materials Institute (HPMI) performs research for emerging advanced composites, nanomaterials, multifunctional materials and devices, and advanced manufacturing.
National High Magnetic Field Laboratory
The mission of the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (NHMFL), as set forth by NSF, is: "To provide the highest magnetic fields and necessary services for scientific research conducted by users from a wide range of disciplines, including physics, chemistry, materials science, engineering, biology, and geology.
Oak Ridge National Laboratory has launched its Neutron Nexus pilot program through the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering. The first program of its kind nationwide aims to broaden and diversify the scientific user community by reaching out to universities and colleges to increase collaboration and, ultimately, scientific advancement.
