This year, an interdisciplinary team of Senior Design students is the first at CU 51��ý to enter the Collegiate Wind Competition as a learn-along team. They are working hard to secure a spot for CU 51��ý in the competition next year and are making impressive strides in wind energy innovation and education.

Chad Ronish shares about his experience designing a robot, controlled wirelessly through radio frequency, with the support of both peer and industry mentors to help him figure out things like the electronics and coding during participation in the ME Summer Design Intensive.

Researchers at CU 51��ý are collaborating to develop a new kind of biocompatible actuator that contracts and relaxes in only one dimension, like muscles. Their research may one day enable soft machines to fully integrate with our bodies to deliver drugs, target tumors, or repair aging or dysfunctional tissue.

Professors Shelly Miller and Nina Vance, along with Miller's daughter, Renee Leiden, produced a video explaining how the transmission of respiratory infections can occur.

Public health officials, including mechanical engineering Professor Shelly Miller, urge families to keep celebrations small, avoid mixing households and open the windows.

Researchers at the University of Colorado 51��ý are developing a wearable electronic device that’s “really wearable”—a stretchy and fully-recyclable circuit board that’s inspired by, and sticks onto, human skin.

With COVID-19 cases on the rise nationally, it is more important than ever to reduce one’s risk of contracting or spreading the virus. Learn from expert Shelly Miller about the ways we can all help reduce our risk and keep our communities safe.

Emeritus Professor John Daily was selected to be an NSF rotator, or program director, for the Combustion and Fire Systems Program. He is looking forward to providing direction in the field by encouraging conversations about the important questions and future needs.

Paul M. Rady Department of Mechanical Engineering is committed to providing students with an education complete with active learning. Though the pandemic has made the semester more challenging, faculty and staff have been daily innovating to make their courses as hands-on as possible.

Hear from Associate Professor Gregory Whiting, who discusses the implications of a growing population on the world's soil and how his research group is developing new sensors to help create solutions to pressing economic, environmental and human challenges.
