Serena Eley, assistant professor of physics at Colorado School of Mines, has been named a 2022 Cottrell Scholar by the Research Corporation for Science Advancement.
Iris Bahar, who officially joined Mines in January, was honored by IEEE for her “contributions to modeling and design of power-aware and noise-tolerant nanoscale computing systems.”
As Executive Director, Camp will seek to build upon CRA’s existing leadership role in the computing research community and work to help the community pursue bold research visions, practice and advocate for socially responsible computing research.
Why did you choose to come to Mines? What have you enjoyed most about being here? I have lived in Colorado my entire life and love the state. I ended up deciding between Colorado schools and
Serena Eley, assistant professor of physics at Colorado School of Mines, has been honored with the 2021 Joseph A. Johnson III Award for Excellence from the American Institute of Physics and the National Society of Black Physicists.
“Quantum technologies are poised to revolutionize how we compute, communicate and sense and this requires engineers that have an interdisciplinary education,” Mines' Peter Aaen said.
Hao Zhang, associate professor of computer science, plans to use lessons from social psychology to increase the resilience and robustness of multi-robot systems.
“We are excited and proud that Mines and our hometown of Golden will be the test bed for this new technology, which will lead to new developments in how it is improved and scaled up so that the environmental and human benefits can be extended well beyond Mines, Golden, and our state," Mines President Paul C. Johnson said.
Dataquest Magazine has named Colorado School of Mines one of the top five universities worldwide for robotics research. Also on the list of “engineering courses and colleges that are changing the
Researchers will develop a first-of-its-kind quantum simulator that could be used to develop novel materials and, in the future, lead to the development of a high-performance quantum computer.
