The three-year award, titled Quantum Control of Ultracold Atoms in Optical Lattices for Inertial Sensing for Space Applications, totals $1.9 million.

Sara Beck finished her undergraduate degrees at CU Boulder in 2003, double majoring in aerospace engineering sciences and studio arts. After an impressive first job at NASA, she returned to the College of Engineering and Applied Science and earned her PhD in environmental engineering under Professor Karl Linden in 2015. We asked her about her impressive experience in engineering so far, her future plans and what it’s like to ride the Tour de France bike race route.

I am thrilled to report that our philanthropic campaign to increase our support and engagement with Colorado’s aerospace sector has surpassed its goal and enabled us to establish three new endowed leadership chairs in electrical, computer and energy engineering, mechanical engineering and aerospace engineering sciences. While this campaign continues through...
