Like many students across the country who've been displaced from college campuses because of the coronavirus pandemic, our engineering students had to quickly adapt, master Zoom and get ready for their final Senior Design Project virtual presentations on May 1st.
Research
The Interim Dean of Graduate Studies, Dr. Stacey Bosick, and the Office of Graduate Studies awarded David House the Graduate Studies Outstanding Research Award for his work on Metasurface Absorbers. David House graduated from the MSCES program in Spring 2020.
The Engineering Department launched a new series of skill enrichment workshops. The workshops, titled "The Blueprints", are an initiative to bring together SSU Engineering and the wider community, with topics covering various skills, such as Python, PCB design, RF measurement, and many more.
Two graduate engineering students, Joseph Haun and David House, are presenting the results of their research work in the Society of Photo-optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE) Digital Forum on Metamaterials, Metadevices, and Metasystems.
Electrical Engineering students enrolled in Electronics II (EE 330) presented their final projects in the Ballroom at the Student Center. Mr. Tim Wang-Lee from Keysight Technologies attended the presentation and recognized the creative efforts of the students.
Gap Wireless is collaborating with the Electrodynamics Engineering Laboratory (EEL) at the Engineering Department to strengthen education and research in the key area of RF testing. Faculty and students will now have access to four RF Test Shielded Enclosures.
The School of Science and Technology hosted the eleventh SHIP and undergraduate MESA-funded summer research. The Engineering Science Department mentored five SHIP students and two MESA students.
The engineering department at Sonoma State University hosted a reunion for the students who attended its first Engineering Summer Camp.
The 2019 Engineering Summer Research program provided internships to 13 Engineering undergraduate and four graduate students, and five high school students from local high schools.
X-ray footprinting mass spectrometry (XFMS) is a relatively new method to investigate structural features and conformational changes of macromolecules in the solution state. This technique is an innovative way to precisely probe proteins and their surroundings using X-rays.
