Through a distinctive, hands-on partnership, University of South Carolina aerospace and mechanical engineering students and Midlands Technical College machine tool technology students are working together to connect the people who design components with the people who bring them to life.
University of South Carolina undergraduate students will have a new opportunity to explore the future of nuclear energy thanks to an investment from The Nuclear Company.
Civil and Environmental Engineering Professor Sarah Gassman is leading a three-year project to help the South Carolina Department of Transportation use state-specific data to design bridge foundations that are safe, reliable and potentially more cost-effective
The project is funded through NSF's Early-concept Grants for Exploratory Research, or EAGER, program, which supports potentially transformative research ideas that are considered high risk but could lead to significant advances.
The University of South Carolina's Molinaroli College of Engineering and Computing is preparing students to do more than simply use AI tools through its 12-credit-hour graduate certificate in Artificial Intelligence.
For Tyrek Long, military service and college are not competing priorities - they are two halves of the same education. The leadership, discipline and technical expertise he develops in one role makes him stronger in the other.
As robots and other advanced technologies become more common in manufacturing, workers are increasingly being asked to operate alongside and collaborate with machines and digital systems that can be difficult to understand.
The new faculty bring expertise spanning artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, advanced manufacturing, materials science, human-machine interaction and other areas of engineering and computing.
A landfill is more than the final destination for our garbage. They also produce methane that can be used to generate electricity. But a common contaminant in that gas can damage engines and make the fuel difficult to use.
The University of South Carolina will establish a Nuclear Innovation Center through the Molinaroli College of Engineering and Computing, a major new initiative aimed at positioning South Carolina as a national leader in nuclear energy research, innovation, partnership, and workforce development.
Senior aerospace engineering major Patrick Wynne is trying to teach a child-sized fitness watch to calculate heart rate on its own. Junior mechanical engineering student David St. John is figuring out how much energy it takes to do it.
The Molinaroli College of Engineering and Computing is mourning the loss of Chemical Engineering Distinguished Professor Emeritus Vincent Van Brunt, a beloved teacher, mentor and colleague.
For chemical engineering alumna Lisa Owen ('86), an unexpected reconnection with the University of South Carolina on social media prompted a conversation that would ultimately shape one of the most meaningful decisions of her life - a transformational gift for the Molinaroli College of Engineering and Computing.
For most children, autism is not diagnosed until they're between three and five years old, when behavioral differences become more noticeable. But what if doctors could identify signs of autism much earlier -- even during infancy?
University of South Carolina computer science professor Dr. Ramtin Zand discusses how AI is reshaping classrooms and what students, parents and educators should know.
Graduate students - many of them international - often arrive on campus without a built-in support system, making it difficult to navigate the academic, professional and personal challenges of graduate school.
Over a three-week period earlier this month, rising seniors from National University of Science and Technology (NUST) Oman participated in the Global Scholar Program at the University of South Carolina.
A consulting project with Google gave one Molinaroli College of Engineering and Computing student a chance to solve real artificial intelligence challenges.
Biomedical engineering alumna Lena Wallace is turning cutting-edge research into practical health care solutions, and her work earned her a spot on the prestigious Gamecock35 list this past spring.
For William Mustain, being named an Electrochemical Society Fellow is the kind of recognition he never imagined when he first started his career.
When most people think of concrete, they picture roads, sidewalks or building foundations, not something that floats.
As the race to secure supplies of lithium accelerates, Molinaroli College of Engineering and Computing researchers are pursuing an unlikely solution: technology originally designed to make drinking water cleaner.
While over 23,000 active users across the university are benefitting from the power of ChatGPT as a tool to enhance learning and research, one USC student is helping lead conversations on AI usage.
