Engineering Students Show Their “Stuff” During Engineering Senior Design Day

Engineering Senior Design Day happens every year in every engineering school in the nation, and FAMU-FSU College of engineering is no exception. It is an event filled with college students in suits scurrying through the school— mostly dark, serious suits with the flair of youth, and maybe colorful sneakers or a tie. Some students carry projects in their hands; other prototypes are so large it takes an entire team to cart them into the building.

FAMU FSU Engineering Alumnus is New President and CEO of Keysight Technologies

ECE Professor Wins Best Paper Award Exploring Sensor Technology on Predictive Maintenance

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.

FAMU-FSU College of Engineering is one of four university teams selected to lead aviation projects for NASA

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

Engineering alumnus partners with college researchers to build better graphene-based aircraft batteries for NASA

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.”

Family of Dr. Gail Skofronick-Jackson establishes memorial scholarship fund for women in honor FAMU-FSU College of Engineering alumnus

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.
