Jinyeong Moon, an assistant professor in electrical and computer engineering at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering, won the Best Paper Award at the 31st International Conference on Field-Programmable Logic and Applications. 

In partnership with researchers at the University of California, Irvine, Moon co-authored a paper for work that introduces a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural accelerator for low-power edge sensor nodes. The technology involves machine learning techniques for sensors.

NASA Aeronautics hopes to recruit the finest young minds from universities and industries in the nation to meet the challenge of sustainable aviation. Reducing aviation carbon emissions to net-zero by 2050 is just one of NASA’s goals getting support from NASA’s University Leadership Initiative (ULI) program. 

Moye Consultants is partnering with researchers at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering to make more efficient graphene-based aircraft batteries. The collaboration is part of a NASA initiative to foster partnerships between minority institutions and small businesses. 

“For years, NASA has wanted to electrify, or at least partially electrify aviation of all shapes and forms,” Davis George Moye, founder of Moye Consultants said. “By taking the lead, NASA hopes to find low carbon options for industries that historically produce a lot of carbon emissions, such as aviation.”

Graduate research students find success through CAPS program

Dr. Gail Skofronick-Jackson liked to think of herself as a falling snow detective. The NASA scientist found joy in watching the snowflakes dance to the ground and described a sense of delight when they presented themselves with their beautiful symmetry and fractal nature. 

Alumni Spotlight: Keishon Smith shares his surprising journey from college engineering hackathon participant to financial professional

After a year of waiting, Keishon Smith finally got to walk—in person—for his 2020 graduation ceremony at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering. He like, so many 2020 graduates, had his senior year dampened by the pandemic.

“It was nice to have my parents watch me walk across the stage at graduation after a 15-month delay,” Smith said.” I’m the first one out of my immediate family to graduate college.”
