Earlier this year, Auburn Engineering graduated its first set of engineers who hold a minor in nuclear power generation systems. One of those graduates, Rebecca Osteen, has accepted a position at the Hatch Nuclear Power Plant in Baxley, Ga. Osteen, a 2013 graduate in chemical engineering, was among the first […]
Bastien Oppenhauser, a senior in mechanical engineering at the Institut Français de Mécanique Avancée in Clermont-Ferrand, France, is experiencing an internship like no other. He is the first student to intern with the College of Engineering’s Formula SAE (AUFSAE) racing team. Oppenhauser’s French university offers students the opportunity to study […]
The Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering now offers an online graduate certificate program in occupational safety and ergonomics. The program, which is recognized by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, includes five three-hour courses delivered online. Coursework in systems safety, biomechanics and human factors engineering teaches students […]
The Council of Engineering Graduate Students (CEGS) hosted its second annual Graduate Engineering Research Showcase (GERS) in October. The event, held in the Shelby Center’s courtyards, promoted engineering scholarship, professionalism and interdisciplinary research, and provided an opportunity to introduce new graduate students to the culture of engineering graduate programs. Nearly […]
Julia Bower Green, ’05 and ’07 civil engineering, has been named one of 10 New Faces of Civil Engineering by the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE). The award highlights the achievement of young civil engineers and their impact on society. Green will be honored at ASCE’s annual Outstanding Projects […]
A “stepping stone to full-time employment” is the perfect way to describe the experience three Auburn students gained through the summer student-employee program at Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC). Twenty-five students, including Auburn engineers Patrick Berry, Logan Brost and Travis Wheeler, had the experience of a lifetime working for SAIC […]
Two Auburn Engineering graduate students are participating in a different kind of educational experience in Alabama’s correctional facilities. What they have found is that education goes both ways, and that they are learning as much as they are teaching. It was an average Tuesday in Elmore, Ala., when Eliza Banu, […]
When 1947 civil engineering graduate Harold Meeks saw the photo of two young surveyors on page 17 of the spring/summer edition of Auburn Engineering, he felt that it was misidentified, and wanted to set the record straight. The Montgomery resident called us, explaining that the photo was taken in 1946, […]
