FAMU-FSU College of Engineering Emerges as a Quantum Research and Education Hub
The FAMU-FSU College of Engineering, supported by the National Science Foundation (NSF), is poised to become a leader in quantum research and scientific discovery.
With two professors each securing a $5 million grant through Florida A&M University, the college is setting the stage for groundbreaking advancements in the quantum realm. What’s more, the agency awarded only five Track II grants nationwide to institutions (at the $5 million level), and the joint college secured two of those.
HAND Engineering Research Center Kickoff
We are excited to introduce the Human Augmentation via Dexterity (HAND) Engineering Research Center, a groundbreaking initiative sponsored by the National Science Foundation and involving researchers from the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering. HAND aims to revolutionize the ability of robots to augment human labor by transforming dexterous robot hands into versatile, easy-to-integrate tools.

Engineering Student Organization Meetings - Fall 2024
Return of the GBM!
It’s fall, and our engineering student organizations and interest groups are back in full swing. Here’s a (not comprehensive) list of the upcoming meetings. As always, all organizations are open to all engineering students regardless of university affiliation. Check the Student Organization page for websites and contact information.
Two Researchers Each Awarded $5M National Science Foundation Grant for Quantum Science Research
Two FAMU-FSU College of Engineering professors have each been awarded $5 million National Science Foundation (NSF) grants to pursue quantum science research.
The funds were awarded to the joint college through Florida A&M University.
Distinguished Seminar Series: Samuel Graham
“Enhancing Die-Level Interfaces to Improve the Thermal Performance of Wide Bandgap Electronics”
With Samuel Graham, Ph.D., Nariman Farvardin Professor and Dean of Engineering at the University of Maryland
Graduate Research Collaborations at ORNL (Workshop)
Graduate engineering students and faculty advisors are invited to a presentation given by William Jenks of ORNL’s Office of Research Education to learn about opportunities and mechanisms by which graduate students can come to the ORNL campus for extended periods to carry out dissertation-related research in areas of mutual interest to their major professor and ORNL scientists. These include both DOE-funded and ORNL/university-funded options. Both faculty and interested graduate students are encouraged to attend.
