When Franchesca Bellevu received the news in April 2024 that she had received the respected McKnight Fellowship, she saw it as one step closer to her dream of being a professor.

Bellevu graduated from Florida State University in 2023 with a bachelor’s degree in industrial and manufacturing engineering. She is working on her doctorate from Florida A&M University at the joint college.

In everything from electronics in cars to the components of commercial airliners are state-of-the-art 3D-printed materials. Their strength and properties depend on what they’re made of and how they’re made.

Inside Tarik Dickens’ lab at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering, researchers are fine-tuning the tools used in 3D printing, helping to create better, stronger materials for a wide variety of applications.

FAMU-FSU College of Engineering proudly announces our engineering faculty members promoted or granted tenure this year. 

Jointly appointed at both Florida A&M and Florida State universities, our instructors and researchers are recognized and highly regarded for their support in the mission and success of the college. Congratulations for all their hard work! These promotions take effect in Fall 2024.

Florida State University’s online graduate programs continue to be recognized among the best in the nation, according to the 2024 U.S. News & World Report rankings released Wednesday.
