In a new study, a team of ATLAS Institute engineers and designers developed a DIY machine that spins textile fibers made of materials like sustainably sourced gelatin. The group’s “biofibers” feel a bit like flax fiber and dissolve in hot water in minutes to an hour.
In June, CU Engineering recognizes the students, faculty and staff who are a part of LGBTQ+ communities and to celebrate contributions to the college.

CU Boulder professor secures $800,000 NASA Grant
Khosro Ghobadi-Far is advancing the science of climate change with orbiting satellites.
Ghobadi-Far has earned an $800,000 grant from NASA to analyze data from the GRACE-FO satellites, which measure variations in Earth’s gravitational field. Although gravity may appear constant to humans, it actually fluctuates across Earth’s surface in ways that can be valuable to climate science.
Blastoff! The rocket soared over the prairie, its unique engine screaming in unison with cheers from more than two dozen students. The months of work, late nights, calculations, and validations had all been worth it.Three University of Colorado
This month we highlight members of our community who identify as Asian, Asian American and Pacific Islander, and who are making contributions to our college and society as researchers, instructors, student leaders and alumni.
Magnus Boee, a graduate student in civil engineering, excelled in Nordic skiing for the Colorado Buffalos. As a Division 1 athlete, he completed both a BS and MS (expected spring 2024) in civil engineering while training and competing. Boee represented South Korea in Nordic skiing at the 2018 PyeongChang Olympics and is now aiming for the 2026 Winter Olympics in Italy.
Three faculty members from the CU Boulder College of Engineering and Applied Science are conducting projects awarded through the U.S. Department of Defense’s Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative (MURI) Program.
Distinguished Professor Zoya Popovic is among 162 inventors named 2023 fellows of the National Academy of Inventors. Election as a fellow in the academy is the highest professional distinction awarded solely to inventors.
Engineers at CU Boulder are developing an “all-seeing eye” based on laser technology that could one day detect harmful particles in the air around cities or in factories.
