How can you snorkel between two tectonic plates, hike along a canyon hundreds of feet deep and enjoy a bonfire in the mountains -- all in the same day, and all while learning about sustainability? Shaylee Traugh has the answer.
The inability to alter intrinsic piezoelectric behavior in organic polymers hampers their application in flexible, wearable and biocompatible devices, according to researchers at Penn State and North Carolina State University, but now a molecular approach can improve those piezoelectric properties.
The National Science Foundation has awarded $1.4 million to a team of Penn State scientists led by Joshua Robinson, professor of materials science and engineering, and John Asbury, associate professor of chemistry, to develop a new laboratory at the University with ultra-fast microscopes that will provide a high-resolution look at incredibly thin materials.
Penn State Millennium Scholars, including those from the College of Earth and Minerals Sciences, say they're ready to be a part of and facilitate changes in the diversity of STEM fields.
A super-absorbent material developed by Penn State scientists could dramatically reduce the environmental impact of oil spills on oceans and allow recovered oil to be refined normally.
Prompted by the industry demand for trained experts in additive manufacturing and design for additive manufacturing, Penn State is offering a new graduate certificate in additive manufacturing and design (AMD) through Penn State World Campus.
Long-Qing Chen, Hamer Professor of Materials Science and Engineering, named Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
Mehdi Kiani, Dorothy Quiggle Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering, along with co-investigator Susan Trolier-McKinstry, professor of materials science and engineering and electrical engineering, is developing a minimally invasive technology for recording and modulating neurons that would allow for unprecedented large-scale neural stimulation and recording with high spatial resolution.
Katelyn Adkison, a materials science and engineering major, will represent the college as its student marshal the fall 2018 undergraduate commencement ceremony. She will be escorted by faculty marshal Zi-Kui Liu, distinguished professor of materials science and engineering and Adkison’s research adviser.
