The Dr. Bhakta Rath and Sushama Rath Research Award recognizes the Mines doctoral graduate whose thesis demonstrates the greatest potential for societal impact. Commencement at Mines continues May 12 with three ceremonies for undergraduates.
Ryan O’Hayre, University Distinguished Professor of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering at Mines, is one of 11 co-principal investigators in the Hydrogen in Energy and Information Sciences (HEISs) Energy Frontier Research Center.
The prestigious program — the oldest continuous graduate fellowship of its kind — provides three years of support for the graduate education of individuals who have demonstrated potential for significant achievements in the STEM disciplines.
Mike McGuirk, assistant professor of chemistry, has received a National Science Foundation CAREER Award for research that could contribute to the discovery of new materials for solar energy production, low density conductors and more.
Deborah McGott, PhD in Materials Science, is the winner of the Fall 2021 Dr. Bhakta Rath and Sushama Rath Research Award. The honor, which recognizes the Colorado School of Mines doctoral graduate
A new $15 million interdisciplinary research institute led by Colorado School of Mines aims to create new theoretically grounded and experimentally validated approaches and tools to design and discover dynamical materials and structures while solving long-standing scientific challenges in the dynamical response of materials.
In findings published in the journal Materials Today, researchers from Colorado School of Mines, along with a team of international scientists, provided a multi-scale study of the origins of kinking in MAX phases.
Together with colleagues at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory and Sandia National Laboratory, the Mines researchers hope to identify an economically viable process window for increasing steel product copper tolerances.
