Engineering Research

Our faculty are active researchers and motivated students can often find opportunities to collaborate with their professors on original research. 

UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH OPPORTUNITY PROGRAM (UROP)

UROP allows undergraduate students to earn stipends of up to $500 per funding cycle while completing research with their faculty. 

Learn more about the UROP application process.

SUMMER UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH EXPERIENCE (SURE)

Similar to UROP, SURE provides an outlet for undergraduate students to take part in hands-on research with their professors while earning a stipend over the spring & summer semesters.

Linda Zhu on active learning

Dr. Na (Linda) Zhu published a paper in the International Journal of Mechanical Engineering Education that explores more effective teaching methods in courses that deal with noise and vibration. Since this content relies heavily on differential equations and linear algebra, students can often struggle to apply the math to solving issues with noise and vibration. This paper explains a more effective method of introducing students to these concepts.

Samantha Hunsinger

Mechanical Engineering '21

Samantha is highly involved as part of the student chapter of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. She says, “I am getting valuable experience outside of the classroom. What we do is so similar to what goes in the real world. Everything that I will do as an engineer in the field someday, I’m doing most of that right now with ASME.”
