The ASEE Diversity Recognition Program publicly recognizes those engineering and engineering technology colleges that make significant, measurable progress in increasing the diversity, inclusion and degree attainment outcomes of their programs.

“Hybrid perovskite photovoltaics are one of the most promising new technologies and have made gains in champion cell performance at astronomical rates. However, stability remains a show-stopper for the technology,” said Angus Rockett, professor and head of the Metallurgical and Materials Engineering Department.

The annual awards recognize Mines faculty, students ands staff who develop innovative programs or policies that enhance diversity on campus, foster understanding and respect for diversity within the campus community, and initiate interactions between people of different backgrounds.

One of the earliest cyberattacks on a university happened right here at Colorado School of Mines more than 20 years ago. It was this attack that inspired Elizabeth Van Wie Davis, professor of international politics and policy in the Division of Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences, to write her newest book, “Shadow Warfare: Cyberwar Policy in the United States, Russia, and China.”

Researchers at Mines, Honeybee Robotics, NASA’s Johnson Space Center and Pioneer Astronautics will build and demonstrate hardware to produce oxygen and steel from lunar regolith.

In findings published last week in the journal Physical Review Letters, an interdisciplinary team led by Mines and Lawrence Livermore National Lab demonstrated the power of using nuclear decay in high-rate quantum sensors.

Two Colorado School of Mines students won awards in the virtual Fall 2020 Student Speaking Symposium hosted by ASM International.

The Bachelor of Science in Business Engineering and Management Science will begin enrolling students in the fall of 2021.

More than 70 percent of Spring 2021 classes have an in-person component, with the remainder being offered fully remote or online.

Renowned energy expert Daniel Yergin will kick off the initiative Jan. 21 with a virtual discussion of his latest book, “The New Map: Energy, Climate, and the Clash of Nations.”
