Everyone knows they should wear a helmet when riding a bike, but “nobody wants to bike around with a mushroom on their head," says brain trauma researcher and Assistant Professor Mehmet Kurt. He spoke with The Washington Post about how he’s trying to solve that problem in his research.
Assistant Professor Brendan Englot recently won a National Science Foundation (NSF) CAREER award. Congrats!
Associate Professor and interim Department Chair Frank Fisher has the #9 “Composites” paper on Google Scholar for Chemical and Materials Science. Classic papers are highly-cited (non-review) papers in their area of research that have stood the test of time. Congrats!
From sustainable energy, fluid systems and design and manufacturing to materials, nanotechnology and robotics, the Department of Mechanical Engineering conducts many different state-of-the-art research disciplines to expand the boundaries of the field.
The Stevens family were pioneer engineers, inventors and entrepreneurs whose achievements molded American society and mechanical engineering. Stevens Institute of Technology was founded in 1870 by Edwin A. Stevens, son of Colonel John Stevens III. The original trustees determined that Stevens should have a single, rigorous engineering curriculum leading…
