April 4: Making sense of data on networks
Antonio Ortega, a professor of electrical engineering at the University of Southern California, will lecture on graph signal processing at the University of Delaware’s Mitchell Hall Auditorium on April 4 at 3:30 p.m.
April 6: A changing computing landscape
In the field of computer science, there is a growing emphasis on convergence—a means of problem-solving that deeply integrates expertise from across disciplines. A rising star in the scientific world of convergence will speak at UD this spring.
Construction Engineering Program Launch
The University of Delaware’s newest engineering major will prepare the next generation of construction professionals with a curriculum that includes engineering foundations and business essentials.
Celebrating women in engineering
Women have been historically underrepresented in engineering, but we look forward to the day when that is no longer true. Meanwhile, at UD, our female faculty do research that earns them citations and accolades.
Female engineering pioneers
UD is committed to the success of women in engineering. In honor of Women’s History Month, here are just a few of the women who set the course for the engineers of today and tomorrow.
Seeking equality in engineering
Pam Cook and Heather Doty from College of Engineering and UD ADVANCE recently collaborated on a Q&A about some of the college’s impressive accomplishments-and goals for the future.
Smart glass
Someday we won’t need curtains or blinds on our windows, and we will be able to block out light-or let it in-with just the press of a button. At least that’s what these two UD engineers hope.
Ready for takeoff
Kyle Panariello, a senior mechanical engineering student at the University of Delaware, was in the middle of a final exam in December when he saw a sign pressed against the door that read: WE’RE FLYING.
Jack Gillespie honored by Society of Plastics Engineers
The director of UD’s world-renowned Center for Composite Materials has been named a Fellow of SPE. Since 1984, just 334 of the society’s 22,500-plus members have achieved Fellow status.
