How do engineering and golf collide? The answer can be found on Katie Calderon's TikTok page. Whether you watch her crush golf balls, compete in long-drive tournaments or develop a 3D-printed putter, Calderon is highlighting what lies at the intersection of golf and engineering.
Materials science and engineering student Mack Cleveland is the recipient of the Astronaut Scholarship, which is presented each year to a handpicked group of students pursuing advances in science, technology, engineering or mathematics.
In some human-interactive electronics, such as temperature gauges or health sensors, polymers are used that are capable of changing color depending on stimuli. A team of researchers recently discovered a helicoidal-shaped defect in layered polymers, uncovering how solvents can diffuse through these layers and produce these color changes.
Materials engineering is an applied field that seeks to design materials with some desired physical properties to serve a particular engineering function.
