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.
A $1.85 million grant from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation connects UC Davis researchers with peers from five other UCs to build a system-wide network of open source program offices to better educate and sustain the UC open source software community.
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.
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.
Computer science student Shyam Agarwal receives the M.S. Ghausi Medal, the College of Engineering's highest honor for a graduating senior, for his dedication to connecting others to computer science.
The new center, led by Associate Professor Kari Watkins, will contribute to advancing the nation's transportation decarbonization and resilient infrastructure goals.
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.
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.
UC Davis and the College of Engineering are poised to lead the conversation around empowering underrepresented minorities in STEM fields and help create a culture of change.
Through teaching, mentorship and outreach, the assistant professor champions accessible materials science education, emphasizing real-world connections and hands-on experiments to inspire future scientists.
