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.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Nobel laureate in physics Richard Feynman once described turbulence as “the most important unsolved problem of classical physics.”
Understanding turbulence in classical fluids like water and air is difficult partly because of the challenge in identifying the vortices swirling within those fluids. Locating vortex tubes and tracking their motion could greatly simplify the modeling of turbulence.
When Samuel Graham was at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering in the early ‘90s, the young mechanical engineering major was a first-generation college student navigating the challenge of how to make it through college and pay for it. Through internships that took him to Florida, Texas and Ohio, Graham discovered a love for mechanical engineering that hasn’t stopped since.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — A Florida State University professor’s research could help quantum computing fulfill its promise as a powerful computational tool.
William Oates, the Cummins Inc. Professor in Mechanical Engineering and chair of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering, and postdoctoral researcher Guanglei Xu found a way to automatically infer parameters used in an important quantum Boltzmann machine algorithm for machine learning applications.
Gibson joined the college as dean on July 1, 2016. He led during a period of remarkable growth in the college and its external reputation. The college jumped up 51 points in rankings last year and is now the second-highest ranked engineering school in Florida, according to US News and World Report.
Face masks are helpful in preventing the spread of COVID-19, but researchers believe they can be made even more effective.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — For Florida State University engineering professor Christian Hubicki, robots aren’t just a tool for the future. They’re a way to understand everything around us.
Hubicki, an assistant professor of mechanical engineering at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering, will continue that quest thanks to a $750,000 Young Faculty Researcher grant from the Toyota Research Institute (TRI). The grant is part of a larger initiative from TRI that will distribute $75 million to 16 institutions around the country.
The FAMU-FSU College of Engineering needs your help designing a new mascot! How would you like to use those design skills you have and to make history at the college? We want to invite you to design a mascot to represent the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering.
A graduate student at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering has earned a prestigious fellowship from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE).
