Each weekday, FAMU-FSU College of Engineering undergraduates Herbert Lopez, Ana De Leon, Paola Chavez and Austin Rodriguez collaborate at the Center for Advanced Power Systems (CAPS) research facility to create a novel medium voltage cable that aims to have reduced reactive power than the ones currently used throughout the continental U.S. If they are successful, the cable could pave the way for improved power transmission efficiency on electric grids across the nation.

Listen to the recording of the Fall 2020 Update for Engineering Students live Zoom with Dean Gibson. Information and policies are changing fast but we will give you the latest details on classes, schedules, labs, research and more.

Eight freshmen engineering students from the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering won third place in the Advancing Minorities Interest in Engineering (AMIE) Design Challenge. The event was hosted at the Black Engineer of the Year Awards (BEYA) conference held in February, 2019 in Washington, D.C. A total of 11 teams from various Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) participated in the event. 

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Two Florida State University researchers are developing a high-tech material currently used in athletic equipment and prosthetics into a special tool to better develop stem cells. The work could improve drug screening, disease modeling, precision medicine and cell therapy.

Accessible transportation is essential for successful aging, because quality of life cannot be sustained unless older adults have reliable and affordable access to social, medical, and other essential services. This is why Dial-A-Ride is vital to many older adults and why my research team created a prototype mobile app for Dial-A-Ride users.

A new intelligent automation course at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering gives students a chance to learn about working in a global environment from an alumnus succeeding abroad.

Successful entrepreneur and HBCU alum Floyd E. Newsum III hasn’t forgotten the mentors and education that propelled him into business on the international stage. Newsum began his journey at Florida A&M University (FAMU) and the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering, and is giving back in a new academic collaboration with the institutions. 

Six engineering undergrads inducted into Florida State University’s prestigious Garnet & Gold Scholar Society this spring

Established in 2010, the Florida State University Garnet & Gold Scholar Society facilitates student involvement and recognizes undergraduate students who excel within and beyond the classroom in at least three of five areas: international experience, internship, leadership, research and service.
 
The induction ceremony was held virtually this spring due to COVID-19.
 

Engineering Senior Design Day 2021 was a virtual showcase of the engineering skills and talent in FAMU-FSU Engineering’s senior class. Two teams received top honors as Best Overall and Best Abstract awardees, out of the 86 engineering design teams made up of Florida A&M and Florida State university students.

Vincent Obiozo Eze is a post-doctoral research associate in the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering, Department of Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering (IME). Eze is originally from Nigeria and traveled to Japan for his master’s and doctoral degrees before joining the college. 

FAMU-FSU College of Engineering industrial and manufacturing engineering (IME) doctoral candidate Sean Jackson attended this year’s annual Black Trailblazers in Engineering (BTE) workshop targeted to outstanding scholars who are committed to making an impact in increasing the number and success of Black engineers. He was named a BTE Fellow.
