Air pollution is responsible for an estimated seven million premature deaths every year, according to new air quality guidelines recently published by theWorld Health Organization. That's roughly one in nine deaths globally.

Each year, the National Science Foundation's Faculty Early Career Development Program, or CAREER, awards grants to "early-career faculty who have the potential to serve as academic role models in research and education." The following story is part of a series highlighting MSU's recipients of NSF's 2021 CAREER grant awards.

Pity today's electronic devices. Ever-increasing demands for smarter and more compact gadgets have pushed electronics to their physical limits. The challenges are even greater for emerging flexible and wearable electronics, where users are demanding less power consumption but more reliability and lifespan.

A Spartan Engineer from Michigan State University has been elected to a leadership role in directing the Technical Activities (TA) unit for the world's largest technical professional society, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).

A Michigan State University professor is using "smart toys" to find new ways to introduce science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) to young children.

Designing innovative electric motors for automotives, power tools or toys hasn't translated into the capacity to efficiently manufacture them. Michigan State University researcher Shanelle Foster wants to change that with new 3D-printing technology guided by careful observations from some of nature's most deft engineers — web-spinning spiders.

A group of Spartan Engineers had an impactful research field test recently that included an advancement from the MSU Nondestructive Evaluation Laboratory (NDEL).
