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.

Through Florida A&M University, the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering is partnering in a large multi-institutional collaboration that has received $26 million from the National Science Foundation (NSF) to launch a new Engineering Research Center (ERC).

The center, led by Northwestern University, is dedicated to revolutionizing robots’ ability to amplify human labor. Carl Moore, an associate professor and robotics researcher in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, leads the FAMU team at the joint college.

Florida State University recently partnered with the University of Florida (UF) to bring a flagship symposium in quantum materials to the state.

The 2024 International Symposium on Quantum Fluids and Solids took place July 24-30 in Jacksonville, Fla. The event brought scientists and engineers whose work explores the workings of materials characterized by quantum mechanics, a branch of physics that describes the behavior of particles at very small scales, such as atoms, molecules and subatomic particles.

A team of FAMU-FSU College of Engineering graduate students led by Brandon Krick, an associate mechanical engineering professor, participated in a historic mission with NASA’s Materials International Space Experiment (MISSE) program.

If you have ever faced the daunting decision of whether to undergo surgery, you likely had several questions. Among the myriad considerations were likely questions about the skill and experience of the person holding the knife.
