Research
- Researchers at CU Boulder are using lasers to precisely quantify the performance of high-speed engines. Those measurements – recently described in detail in Optica – are key to propelling superfast hypersonic vehicles and providing better engine performance overall.
- Events showcase research, scholarship and creative work from across the campus and demonstrate the broad impact of the research and innovation enterprise at CU Boulder.
- Researchers from CU Boulder and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) will be better able to coordinate their efforts with the opening of the Quantum Engineering Initiative (QEI) Collaboration Lab on Sept. 26.
- External research funding to CU Engineering remained strong in 2022 with projects totaling $131 million for the year’s funding cycle.
- The Fox Group, led by Jerome Fox, assistant professor of chemical and biological engineering at CU Boulder, was awarded $1.1 million of a five-year, $12.8 million U.S. Department of Energy grant, which involves seven universities and institutions and paves the way for broader use of non-food oilseed crops in the chemical industry.
- Just five U.S. universities have trained 1-in-8 tenure-track faculty members serving at the nation’s institutions of higher learning, according to new CU Boulder research.
- The Lectureship is among the most esteemed honors bestowed by the faculty upon a faculty member at the °µÍø½ûÇø.
- CU Boulder’s Office of Postdoctoral Affairs (OPA), in partnership with the Postdoctoral Association of Colorado Boulder (PAC Boulder), is offering both virtual and in-person activities throughout the week of Sept. 19–23.
- A state-of-the-art instrument coming soon to CU Boulder will improve research around quantum engineering and may eventually prove to be a game-changer for interdisciplinary materials and device research in the Rocky Mountain region.
- A number of researchers at CU Boulder are celebrating the passage of the CHIPS and Science Act by Congress.
