Graduate Student Research
- ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Boulder Engineering study finds at least nine pesticide chemicals near Boulder County homesThe air quality study, led by mechanical engineering PhD candidate Aniya Khalili, aims to inspire the community to lead cleaner lifestyles and promote further research on pesticide exposure.
- The National Science Foundation has awarded two Paul M. Rady Department of Mechanical Engineering students with Graduate Research Fellowships and two students with honorable mentions.
- The Division of Polymeric Materials: Science and Engineering recognized Martinez's research on membrane technologies that can ensure more scientifically reliable water treatment filtration systems.
- Studying emergent behavior has long fascinated engineers, and researchers at the University of ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Boulder just uncovered a distinct behavior in colonies of fire ants cooperating in flood situations.
- Professor Corey Neu and Benjamin Seelbinder's (PhDMech’19) work, now published in Nature Biomedical Engineering, looks at how cells adapt to their environment and how a mechanical environment influences a cell. Their research has the potential to tackle major health obstacles.
- The Paul M. Rady Department of Mechanical Engineering has awarded PhD candidate Ryan Cole this year’s Outstanding Dissertation Award. Read his Q&A to learn more about his engineering education, dissertation and goals for the future.
- Mechanical engineering student Mitchell Fulton won 'Best Performing Method' for a paper detailing his novel approach to autonomously identify regions of the heart using MRI scan images at the M&Ms-2 Challenge.
- The National Science Foundation has awarded six prestigious Graduate Research Fellowships to University of ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Boulder mechanical engineering students, a signal of the innovative and impactful research they will perform in the years ahead.
- The prestigious fellowship, offered through the U.S. Department of Defense, promotes education in science and engineering disciplines relevant to national defense.
