A team of researchers from the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering is developing a modular solar electricity system that can help communities keep electricity flowing during natural disasters.
They say lightning never strikes in the same place twice. For Srikar Telikapalli, a graduate student in electrical engineering, that theory doesn’t hold—at least when it comes to awards.
“I’m very fortunate to receive these awards, I can whole heartedly say that this was a group effort,” Telikapalli said. “The support provided to me by my adviser Dr. Pamidi and my mentors Dr. Cheetham and Dr. Kim, my colleagues at the HTS lab in CAPS and the college this would not be possible.”

Celebrate the excellence of our faculty, staff and alumni with dinner and awards.
Florida State University and FAMU-FSU College of Engineering alumnus Thiago Szymanski, Ph.D. recently received the prestigious Science, Mathematics, and Research for Transformation (SMART) Scholar Seed Grant Award from the Department of Defense to study hardware in the loop simulations. Szymanski hopes that this work will help improve carbon emissions for the Navy. Szymanski is an engineer at the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Philadelphia Division.
The FAMU-FSU College of Engineering, Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering in partnership with Keysight Technologies, has opened a new measurements and instrumentation lab, serving engineering education and research at the college.
The electrical engineer was recently crowned “Miss Raleigh USA” in North Carolina and will compete for Miss North Carolina USA in February. She hopes to use the platform to amplify awareness about the causes she cares about, like having more women in STEM.
