Engineering Researchers Want Drivers to See Clearly on the Road
Every year, sun glare contributes to around 3,000 crashes in the United States. FAMU-FSU College of Engineering researchers are helping to mitigate this problem by examining what drivers are likely to do when faced with sun glare. Their work was published in Transportation Research Record.
Soronadi Nnaji, Pioneer of Civil Engineering at the College, Passes Away at 79
Dr. Soronadi Nnaji passed away on Friday, June 9, 2023. He would have been 80 years old on August 12, 2023.
He was one of the founding faculty of the Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering and was the third departmental chair. It is my sincere opinion that Dr. Soro Nnaji was a giant on whose shoulders all of the department stands.
