Engineering for All

Video Series Aims at Improving Indoor Air Quality

A new video series developed by experts at the UC Davis College of Engineering and California Department of Public Health aims to help building and facility managers better understand how to manage indoor air quality. Better indoor air quality can reduce the spread of airborne diseases such as COVID-19 and improve productivity in schools and workplaces.

E-SEARCH Opens Doors to Higher Education

Initiated as part of the College of Engineering’s Next Level strategic vision for education, E-SEARCH pairs undergraduate engineering students with graduate researchers, aiming to equip students with the tools they will need for success in graduate school or careers in engineering.

Horizon Lines

Associate Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering Kari Watkins leads a project to turn the UC Davis campus into the world’s premier living-learning lab for researching bike and bus infrastructure.

How Autocrats Control Internet Traffic Out of Sight

Authoritarian regimes exert control over the internet through transit networks that operate largely out of public view, according to a recent study by researchers in the U.S. and Germany. The work, published in PNAS Nexus, also shows how more sophisticated authoritarian regimes extend their influence by providing network access in poorer but politically similar countries.

Weaving Design and Engineering for Next-Gen Wearables

Gozde Goncu-Berk, an associate professor of design at the University of California, Davis, is forging partnerships with professors from the College of Engineering to realize innovative research in wearable technology.
