Combined research activity and building operations at the Colorado State University Powerhouse Energy Campus has helped save nearly 170 million tons of greenhouse gas from entering the atmosphere over the last two decades. That is roughly equivalent to annual emissions from 24 large coal plants or the emissions savings of planting 4 million trees.
On December 2, campus and members of the public are invited to join the Department of Mechanical Engineering for its inaugural class competition, “Doll’d Up Nautical Knockdown: Where Fashion Meets Splashin.’”
Colorado State University researchers are set to launch two projects aimed at finding ways to reduce the energy cost of water desalinization and purification.
Ghosh and his research team received funding from National Science Foundation and NASA’s Center for the Advancement of Science in Space to develop an injection that could eliminate tissue loss for astronauts. The same drug could be used to help people on earth recover from prolonged bedrest or immobility.
The mechanical engineering senior design team will have nine months to raise funds, design, and create a rocket for the competition April in Huntsville, Alabama.
A new course offered by the Walter Scott, Jr. College of Engineering aims to help first-year students navigate the difficult transition from high school to engineering classes.
Researchers at Colorado State University are working with industry partners in Fort Collins to develop a green energy heat system for New Belgium Brewing that will drastically reduce the company’s carbon footprint.
Kirk McGilvray, associate director of the Orthopaedic Bioengineering Research Laboratory, is leading a research group set out to improve the healing process of rotator cuff injuries with the help of a 3-D printed implant.
Pulling inspiration from the natural world, researchers at Colorado State University have developed a trio of robots that can morph their bodies and legs as needed to better crawl, shimmy or swim over difficult terrain.
CSU hosted the largest aeronautics and aerospace symposium in the history of The American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Rocky Mountain section.
