Engineering & Applied Science Research

We transform society through disruptive discoveries at the College of Engineering and Applied Science. Students and faculty create bold, new solutions that impact everyday lives — think innovative manufacturing technology, life-saving devices, health-tracking sensors, and preparing for the next pandemic. Our research touches every aspect of life, all in an effort to take our community to the next level. Next lives here.


Research pushes the boundaries of all our scientific and technical areas of endeavor. Our research accomplishments come from our dedicated faculty who never stop seeking new knowledge, and our students who are the future of engineering.
