Shelter and the Storm
“Reconnaissance brings home why you’re an engineer,” says Tracy Kijewski-Correa, the Leo E. and Patti Ruth Linbeck Associate Professor of Civil & Environmental Engineering & Earth Sciences. “You’re trying to channel that call to service. We can study math and models, but the human face is different. You look at this house that’s blown apart like toothpicks and it reminds you what nature can do. There’s a certain awe and respect; then as engineers, we pivot to ‘How can we build better?’”
Fulfilling the Mission through Faith, Reason, and Research
Many people off campus struggle with the link between faith and technology. To the researchers across campus, like those in the College of Engineering, faith and reason are not only complementary one to another; they are necessary one to the other.
Creating a Virtual Assistant for Software Engineers: It’s All about a Common Language
Most people are familiar with virtual assistants such as Siri or Alexa. They answer questions, make recommendations, and simplify common tasks. No such assistance exists for software engineers. This is what Collin McMillan, assistant professor of computer science and sngineering, and his team are exploring.
