Coding for Real Life

"When I heard one assignment involved programming a bill for a cell phone company, I thought, ‘This is something I can relate to.’ It was really empowering to see the skills I learned in class apply to a real-life situation."

Cinthya Tang, Undergraduate Student

Ingenuity Goes the Distance

"I thought it was quite ingenious of the students to develop a method that not only improved long-distance telecommunications, but pinpointed the robotic tool’s precise location as it traveled along the gas pipeline."

Wolfgang Fink, Associate Professor

Automation for Acrobats

"Nowadays you just don't imagine doing anything without very complex, computer-controlled equipment. It's not human-operated; it's human-supervised."

Phillip Toussaint, Alumnus and Engineer at Stage Technologies
