A collaboration between UC Davis Health and the Translating Engineering Advances to Engineering, or TEAM, Lab is simplifying a rare, complex surgery through three-dimensional printed models to help surgical teams plan and prepare.
Erik Contreras, a UC Davis mechanical engineering graduate student, paused their degree to pursue a Master of Fine Arts in Design. In this Q&A, Contreras discusses their interdisciplinary journey, creative hacking and their work on autonomous vehicles.
Professor of Chemical Engineering Adam Moulé and his lab have developed a novel method of patterning semiconducting polymers, a notoriously difficult material, using existing tools, paving the way for endless possibilities for sensors and optics.
As a new assistant professor of teaching in the Department of Biological and Agricultural Engineering at the University of California, Davis, Vivian Vuong aims to establish a curriculum that balances engineering expertise with human-centered design principles.
Kittens and engineering may seem like an unsuitable pair, but a recent collaboration between a professor of veterinary medicine and the Translating Engineering Advances to Medicine Lab at UC Davis proves otherwise.
UC Davis researchers partnered with Oak Ridge National Laboratory to design a new device that can use neutrons to measure molecules in optically excited states. It's a potential game-changer to study materials that will increase the efficiency of photovoltaic solar cells.
Halfway through their four-year challenge to design and customize a next-generation electric vehicle, the student-led UC Davis EcoCAR team is at full throttle.
Meet three standout student teams that constructed creative solutions to real-world problems, including air pollution, drought and rising temperatures, during the fall quarter session of ENG 3 – "Introduction to Engineering Design" at UC Davis.
A team of UC Davis students looked beyond convention and imagined the future to conceptualize a hybrid-electric turboprop aircraft, earning them third place in the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics’ national design competition.
