Bioengineers are, quite literally, engineers of health. In that role, they have a true responsibility to put their expertise and skills to work for the good of others. Bioengineering senior Andrew Ramos ’17 doesn’t see any reason to wait until…

Experts on the science and engineering of buildings will convene in Syracuse in September 2018 for the seventh International Building Physics Conference (IBPC). This is the first time this conference is being held in the United States; it is coming…

Scientists have long known of the potential of microalgae to aid in the production of biofuels and other valuable chemicals. However, the difficulty and significant cost of growing microalgae have in some ways stalled further development of this promising technology. Bendy Estime,…

Faculty in the College of Engineering and Computer Science have been awarded a $295,000 grant by the Air Force Office of Scientific Research to introduce dynamic data to the design of information fusion systems to accelerate the processing of large amounts…

It may not be the final frontier, but with modern virtual reality technology, we can certainly “explore strange new worlds” and “boldly go where no man has gone before.” Today’s virtual reality can trick our minds into believing that we…

This summer, a newly launched Invention Accelerator, modeled after Invention Factory, will train undergraduate Syracuse University students to “design, prototype and pitch” as they invent tangible products. A collaboration between the College of Engineering & Computer Science, the College of Architecture and…

Students in the new course “Construction Management Practices in Eastern Europe” began their studies early last summer in the heart of Bulgaria, spending two weeks examining historic and modern construction sites throughout the country. The trip began with a visit…

The early days of stem cell research were mired in controversy. The fact that the first isolated human stem cells were derived from human embryos in various stages of development introduced serious moral implications that cast a shadow over the…

Six collaborative research groups from the University’s various schools and colleges have been awarded more than $230,000 in state revitalization funding for their projects in unmanned aerial systems (UAS). Projects include energy mapping of buildings, autonomous navigation and the development…

“Our work shows the importance of considering the co-benefits of our nation’s energy policies going forward,” said Syracuse University professor Charles T. Driscoll, co-author of the study.
