From soft-bodied robots to wind turbines to navigation projects, our faculty is
involved in a variety of exciting research efforts. With applications such
as new approaches to medical surgeries, the ability to store hydrogen for use in
cars, and safely guiding airplanes into airports, these projects are excellent
opportunities to solve many current everyday engineering problems.
Furthermore, our students are leading projects such as building a house for the
Solar Decathlon, building a hybrid car, building a solar car, and even assisting
villages in remote areas such as Ecuador, and Africa.
