Bryce Sohayda is an undergraduate student in mechanical engineering. He interned at Xtreme Power Conversion Corporation during summer 2024.
Sean Humbert, professor in mechanical engineering and director of the Robotics graduate program, chats with CBS News Colorado about some of the technology him and his students are working on at CU Â鶹ӰԺ. One of their builds is a robot that the Â鶹ӰԺ County Sheriff's Office uses to support their bomb squad team.
Riley McGill is undergraduate student in Mechanical Engineering. She is working on research in the Animal Inspired Motion and Robotics Lab (AIMRL).
The group of mechanical engineering seniors is the first Â鶹ӰԺ team to compete in the U.S. Department of Energy’s Collegiate Wind Competition (CWC) – an event in which future engineers are challenged to find a unique solution to a wind energy project.
The Â鶹ӰԺ has welcomed students back to campus for fall 2021, allowing ME faculty to bring back traditional hands-on labs and classes for the first time in nearly two years.
The idea for the Exo-Seat came to Morgan Kauss when she was working as a caregiver for a local woman, Cindy, who has Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis.
The team, which included mechanical engineering student Hannah Livingston, developed a large solar PV system.
Noah Gilsdorf is a double-degree student at the Â鶹ӰԺ working toward a bachelor of science in mechanical engineering and a bachelor of music in jazz studies.
Emily Zuetell is an undergraduate student in mechanical engineering.  She was the president of CU’s student chapter of Engineers Without Borders and has been a member of the organization for over three years.
This year, an interdisciplinary team of Senior Design students is the first at CU Â鶹ӰԺ to enter the Collegiate Wind Competition as a learn-along team. They are working hard to secure a spot for CU Â鶹ӰԺ in the competition next year and are making impressive strides in wind energy innovation and education.
