Recent Publications

The department of Engineering Science strongly supports student research and student scholarly activities. Each semester, many of our EE and MS-CES students engage in a variety of funded and/or corporate sponsored projects. The results of these projects are often submitted to peer-reviewed conferences and journals. Below is a list of selected student Presentations, Posters, and Peer-Reviewed Publications accomplished by EE students at SSU.
