Danny Georgiadis, Ph.D., professor in Industrial and Manufacturing (IME) at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering has been awarded Engineer of the Year in 2018 by the District of Columbia Council of Engineering and Architectural Societies (DCCEAS). Georgiadis was nominated by the American Society of Naval Engineers (ASNE).
A key component of many mattresses, pillows, helmets, shoes, earbuds and bathmats, memory foam has become ubiquitous in modern life. First developed by NASA in the mid-1960s to improve the safety of airplane seats, memory foam is known for its ability to return to its original shape once the pressure is removed.
The Society of Plastics Engineers Composites Division selected industrial and manufacturing engineering Ph.D. candidate and HPMI researcher Yourri Dessureault for the 2018-19 Harold Giles Graduate Scholarship.
Engineer Madhuparna Roy is a winner of the 3 Minute Thesis Competition at FSU and a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering. She was a speaker at the latest installment of TEDxFSU on Friday, March 23, 2018.
In her speech, she talked about her research, which focuses on how 3D printing, and how it can be used to make lightweight plane materials that protect it from lightning. She also highlighted the disparity of women in STEM due to toys given as children that discourage the growth of spatial planning skills in young girls.
A next-generation foam technology developed by engineers at Florida State University could soon be a key component in safer and more effective football helmets, thanks to a new grant from the National Football League’s Play Smart. Play Safe. health and safety initiative.

Dear FAMU-FSU College of Engineering students,
Although classes at both main campuses will be suspended on their respective Homecoming Day (see dates below), classes at the College of Engineering will be held as usual.
FAMU and FSU engineering students who wish to participate in the Homecoming events should notify their instructor(s) ahead of time. An excused absence does not necessarily excuse you from any missed course work.
