#MyDaveCloughStory

Everything CU Boulder engineering students learn culminates in capstone design projects, presented at the annual Engineering Projects Expo. This year's event will feature projects from mechanical engineering; computer science; electrical, computer and energy engineering; biomedical engineering; and civil, environmental and architectural engineering. Event date: Friday, April 26. Location: CU Indoor Practice Facility. Time: Open to the public from 2 to 5 p.m.

Distinguished Professor Zoya Popovic is among 162 inventors named 2023 fellows of the National Academy of Inventors. Election as a fellow in the academy is the highest professional distinction awarded solely to inventors.

CU Boulder's journey toward gender parity in engineering is a clear signal that diversity in STEM is achievable. In just two decades, CEAS has transformed its engineering landscape, growing its female undergraduate class from 18% in 2003 to 30% in 2023. CEAS’s fall 2023 class, includes 41% female students, up 27% from two decades ago. CU Boulder clinched a top spot in 2022 for the highest percentage of first-year female engineering students from the American Society for Engineering Education.

A team led by environmental engineer Evan Thomas has received a $650,000 Convergence Accelerator grant from the National Science Foundation, to measure and mitigate pollution in the Cache la Poudre and Yampa Rivers in Colorado through new sensor technology, monitoring, and a voluntary carbon credits trading system with industry.

Since retiring in 2017 from CU Boulder’s Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering, Professor Dave Clough has collaborated on three textbooks. He’s also regularly involved with students, participating in PhD committees and undergraduate activities alike.

Professor Daniel K. Schwartz was honored with the prestigious American Chemical Society (ACS) Division of Colloid and Surface Chemistry 2024 Langmuir Lectureship award for significant contributions to the field of colloid and interface science.

Engineers at CU Boulder are developing an “all-seeing eye” based on laser technology that could one day detect harmful particles in the air around cities or in factories.

A new paper in Science co-authored by mechanical engineer Shelly Miller lays out a blueprint for mandating indoor air quality standards for public buildings.

The Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) granted $39 million to a CU Boulder-led team to pioneer a single-shot joint treatment that would stop cartilage and bone from erosion and promote regrowth.

We sat down with third-year mechanical engineering student Sara Leschova to share about her CU Engineering experience! Sara serves as the Director of Special Events & Advocacy for the Society of Women Engineers (SWE) at CU Boulder for the 2023-2024 school year.
