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

Jiliang Tang of Michigan State University has been named the 2021 Rising Star by the Association of Chinese Scholars in Computing - the sole recipient of the international honor this year.

Two Spartan Engineers are among those sharing a national medal for their ongoing commitment in helping the American Society for Mechanical Engineers (ASME) develop and implement diversity and inclusiveness practices.

Michigan State University President Samuel L. Stanley Jr., M.D., and other university leaders officially introduced the new STEM Teaching and Learning Facility on the East Lansing campus to the community with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Sept. 10.

As one of the nation's top research universities, Michigan State University prepares Spartans to think critically and creatively to gather important data that will help shape future conservation methods and inform public health measures across the state.

Albert Einstein might have called this research at Michigan State University a much-needed study. Einstein won a Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921 for explaining the photoelectric effect.

The Biomedical and Physical Sciences Building on the campus of Michigan State University received a first-of-its-kind upgrade with the installation of transparent solar glass panels. The 100 square feet of transparent solar glass installed above the building's entryway will generate enough electricity to power lighting in its atrium.
