Taking advantage of every opportunity: one Mizzou Engineer’s international experience in Sweden
Studying engineering abroad allows students to develop a new, global perspective on their field and gain hands-on experience in new engineering environments. Rhea Pookulangara, a sophomore biomedical engineering and computer science student, is participating in a study abroad program in Sweden this summer.
Engineering Undergrads Shine at Summer Research Forum
At the University of Missouri, researchers are blazing new trails for more than just themselves—and that innovative spirit extends to student researchers. Undergraduate engineering students presented their summer research findings at the Office of Undergraduate Research’s Summer Undergraduate Research Forum.
Mizzou Engineering hosts four NSF REU sites in critical research areas
Mizzou Engineering empowers students to explore the world through leading-edge research and provides the necessary tools and guidance. This summer, students from across the U.S. have traveled to campus to take part in National Science Foundation Research Experiences for Undergraduates Sites (NSF REUs) and gain access to those tools while working with our world-class faculty.
A variety of experiences: Moore spends summer conducting research
Marissa Moore, a senior chemical engineering student, is participating in a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) program at the Georgia Institute of Technology. We asked her a few questions about the experience.
Civil engineering graduate students make strides in water quality research
Graduate students at Mizzou are adventurous and inquisitive, driven by the quest to discover the unknown. They dive headfirst into finding solutions to some of the world’s most pressing problems. Two civil engineering graduate students are diving into the world of clean water, and recently received scholarships from the Missouri Water Center to continue their research.
Mizzou Engineering students take honors at Show Me Research Week 2024
Nine engineering students took honors at Show Me Research Week, a collaboration between MU's Office of Undergraduate Research and the Bond Life Sciences Center, which included poster presentations, guest lectures and special activities. More than 55 engineering students presented.
Show me success: Students showcase work during Show Me Research Week
Judging from the innovative projects and research they presented this week, it’s evident that engineering students at Mizzou are getting ready to change the world. Show Me Research Week, held in April, gives students an opportunity to present the work that they conduct throughout the year in front of judges and other interested students and members of the Mizzou community.
Presenting engineering undergraduate research to legislators: A Q&A with Ahhyun Lee
Ahhyun Lee was one of 13 Mizzou students selected to present her research at Undergraduate Research Day at the Capitol last week. Read for a Q&A with Lee about her research, which focuses on using artificial intelligence to enhance protein function prediction.
Gain technical skills and community by getting involved in undergraduate research
It’s Show Me Research Week, and engineering students are showing up to present work on the world’s most pressing problems. Kate Barnard has been involved in research since her sophomore year. A mechanical engineering student, she’s been working with civil engineering Assistant Professor Maryam Salehi on multiple research projects in order to reduce the number of microplastics in our water.
Exploring their research interests
Two University of Missouri students will explore their research interests in Germany this summer through the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) Research Internships in Science and Engineering (RISE) program. Both Emma McDougal and Lara Stefani will have the opportunity to develop their research passions after recently being named DAAD RISE recipients.
