The College of Engineering and Applied Science, the College of Arts and Sciences and the Leeds School of Business are teaming up to highlight CU Boulder-led research to address climate change from 3-5 p.m. on Nov. 30 in the Olson Atrium of the Rustandy Building.

Researchers at CU Boulder are using lasers to precisely quantify the performance of high-speed engines. Those measurements – recently described in detail in Optica – are key to propelling superfast hypersonic vehicles and providing better engine performance overall.

External research funding to CU Engineering remained strong in 2022 with projects totaling $131 million for the year’s funding cycle.

Researchers at CU Boulder are using lasers to precisely quantify the performance of high-speed engines. Those measurements – recently described in detail in Optica – will be key to propelling superfast hypersonic vehicles in the future and should provide better engine performance overall.

A state-of-the-art instrument coming soon to CU Boulder will improve research around quantum engineering and may eventually prove to be a game-changer for interdisciplinary materials and device research in the Rocky Mountain region.

Professor Scott Diddams has officially joined CU Engineering as the Robert H. Davis Endowed Chair in Discovery Learning in the Department of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering.

Researchers at CU Boulder have developed and validated a new sensor for E. coli risk detection that features an impressive 83% accuracy rate when detecting contamination in surface waters.

The Research Support Office will host Sandia Day 2022 – with research presentations, poster session and networking event – from 2:15-5 p.m. Aug. 29 on the first floor of the Gallogly Discovery Learning Center to celebrate the growing partnerships between engineering and Sandia National Laboratory.

Provost Russ Moore appointed Molenaar as the college’s permanent dean in late June. Molenaar said he has already started discussions with leadership about updating the college’s strategic vision and plans to move into an inclusive and encompassing feedback phase for that work in the near future.

CU Boulder PhD candidates Katie Fankhauser and Denis Muthike are lead authors of new research on our ability to forecast, mitigate and quickly respond to increasingly intense drought conditions in Africa due to climate change.
