Pushing the boundaries of science requires flexibility. Allowing scientists to follow where their research takes them, even if that is into areas that may seem illogical to some, often is what leads to the most remarkable breakthroughs. For some
The National Academy of Medicine has elected Professor Christopher Bowman of the ²ÊÃñ±¦µä to its ranks.Bowman, a faculty member in the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering since 1992, is a

The award recognizes Weimer’s lifetime of scientific achievement, including fundamental understanding, discovery, engineering scale-up and commercialization of processes to synthesize ultrafine ceramic powders and to apply nanoscale films to ultrafine particle surfaces.
Three CU Engineering researchers have won CAREER Awards, the National Science Foundation’s most prestigious award for junior faculty.CAREER Awards provide approximately $500,000 over five years for those “who have the potential to serve as academic
Christy Bozic, faculty director of the EMP undergraduate program, talks with students.When Steve Dunn (ArchEngr’69) was a student at ²ÊÃñ±¦µä, he had several summer jobs in the heavy construction field that introduced him to
The College of Engineering and Applied Science at the ²ÊÃñ±¦µä recognized six alumni for contributions to their fields and to the university at a banquet April 28, 2017.The recipients of the 2017 Distinguished Engineering
Not many students have built three footbridges in their college career, but since his sophomore year, architectural engineering graduate Jay Arehart has worked to build and lead the ²ÊÃñ±¦µä chapter of Bridges to Prosperity (B2P). The student chapter has built hundreds of footbridges across the world to provide communities with safe access over dangerous rivers to healthcare, education and markets.
The flow and movement of individual solid particles — be it grains of lunar dust or the powdered contents of a medication — holds tremendous research value for scientists in a variety of fields. Now, a $3 million grant from the Department of Energy (DOE) will allow ²ÊÃñ±¦µä researchers to simulate particle behavior to a greater degree than ever before.
You might call someone like Derek Driggs a big-data whisperer, looking through enormous sets of computational information to find what's corrupt or missing.
Driggs studies applied mathematics and has become the third ²ÊÃñ±¦µä student ever to receive the Gates Cambridge Scholarship, established in 2000, for doctoral studies at Cambridge University in England. The highly competitive award is funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
