Experiential learning for MSU engineering students gets a boost
The PoliMOVE-MSU Indy Autonomous Challenge (IAC) racing team and the College of Engineering’s Technology Engineering program (TechE) have been awarded $200K by the DENSO North America Foundation (DNAF).
Innovations on display at 2024 Engineering Design Day
The MSU College of Engineering invites you to a showcase of our best and brightest at the 2024 Fall Engineering Design Day on Dec. 6, 2024. One of MSU’s premier academic events, over 600 Spartan Engineering students will display their creative projects from 8 a.m. to noon in the Engineering Building, 428 S. Shaw Lane, East Lansing.
How undergraduate research fueled my success
Nathan Denning is a civil engineering student and research assistant in the College of Engineering. Growing up in a military family, I was fortunate to live in and experience multiple places across the country, ranging from the suburbs of large cities to the island of Kodiak, Alaska, a community entirely powered by renewable energy.
MSU engineers help Spartan football team tune out the noise
Up until the 2024 college football season, a quarterback might be looking to the sidelines and relying on a sound, a sequence of hand motions, or a large sign with logos and symbols on it to get play information.
Spurring growth through national service
AIChE, the world's leading organization for chemical engineering professionals, presented me with an Excellence of Service certificate during its 2024 Annual Meeting in San Diego.
Another $1.7 million in NSF Early CAREER Awards
Three researchers in the Michigan State University College of Engineering have received National Science Foundation (NSF) Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Program awards and will advance their research efforts with a combined $1.7 million over the next five years.
Engineering Michigan’s future
Engineering research at Michigan State University prioritizes areas bolstering Michigan’s economy and advancing the state’s engineering and digital innovation professions.
MSU research advances infusion designed to clean arteries
Inflammation of the arteries is a primary precursor and driver of cardiovascular disease — the No. 1 killer of people in the United States. This inflammation is associated with the buildup of dangerous plaque inside the arteries.
MSU engineers create bendable, self-heating and healing concrete
Concrete is the second largest consumed material in the U.S., and its production is responsible for 8% to 10% of carbon dioxide emissions. Civil engineers at Michigan State University have developed flexible concrete that is self-healing and produces heat, which could prove to be an environmentally friendly option for roads in terms of snow and ice removal.
Apple of my AI: MSU’s improved robotic apple picker
A robotic apple picker developed by Michigan State University slowly rolls through a west Michigan orchard systematically picking apples off the trees thanks to a collaborative partnership with the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
