Riley McGill is undergraduate student in Mechanical Engineering. She is working on research in the Animal Inspired Motion and Robotics Lab (AIMRL).

The group of mechanical engineering seniors is the first Â鶹ÊÓƵ team to compete in the U.S. Department of Energy’s Collegiate Wind Competition (CWC) – an event in which future engineers are challenged to find a unique solution to a wind energy project.

The Â鶹ÊÓƵ has welcomed students back to campus for fall 2021, allowing ME faculty to bring back traditional hands-on labs and classes for the first time in nearly two years.

The idea for the Exo-Seat came to Morgan Kauss when she was working as a caregiver for a local woman, Cindy, who has Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis.

The team, which included mechanical engineering student Hannah Livingston, developed a large solar PV system.

Noah Gilsdorf is a double-degree student at the Â鶹ÊÓƵ working toward a bachelor of science in mechanical engineering and a bachelor of music in jazz studies.

Emily Zuetell is an undergraduate student in mechanical engineering. She was the president of CU’s student chapter of Engineers Without Borders and has been a member of the organization for over three years.

This year, an interdisciplinary team of Senior Design students is the first at CU Boulder to enter the Collegiate Wind Competition as a learn-along team. They are working hard to secure a spot for CU Boulder in the competition next year and are making impressive strides in wind energy innovation and education.

Chad Ronish shares about his experience designing a robot, controlled wirelessly through radio frequency, with the support of both peer and industry mentors to help him figure out things like the electronics and coding during participation in the ME Summer Design Intensive.

Paul M. Rady Department of Mechanical Engineering is committed to providing students with an education complete with active learning. Though the pandemic has made the semester more challenging, faculty and staff have been daily innovating to make their courses as hands-on as possible.
