Recently, engineering dean J. Murray Gibson initiated the Dean’s Engineering Fellows Program, a new graduate funding program from the Dean of Engineering facilitated through the Associate Dean of Research and Graduate Studies. The aim of the initiative is to enhance the quality and number of engineering Ph.D. students at the college.
Research led by Florida A&M University Pharmaceutics Professor Mandip Sachdeva has resulted in the creation of the first high throughput printing of human cells in a 3D print of the cornea in the U.S.
Teng Ma earned his BS in Chemical Engineering from Tianjin University, China in 1989, his MS in Biosystems Engineering from the University of Hawaii in 1994, and his PhD in Chemical Engineering from Ohio State University in 1999. Following a postdoctoral position at the Ohio State University Medical Center OB/GYN Department, he joined the Department of Chemical & Biomedical Engineering at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering. Dr. Ma progressed through the ranks as an Assistant Professor (2000-6), Associate Professor (2006-11), and Professor (2011-present).
Dear FAMU-FSU College of Engineering students,
Although classes at both main campuses will be suspended on their respective Homecoming Day (see dates below), classes at the College of Engineering will be held as usual.
Two FAMU-FSU Engineering students were part of the Florida State University (FSU) team who won gold this year at the 2019 iGEM Giant Jamboree in Boston. The competition included 360 teams who showcased their research and competed for awards.
The Seminole 100 list for 2020 was released yesterday and four FAMU-FSU Engineering alumni businesses are among the honorees. Three of the businesses are repeat awardees for the honor. The list recognizes the fastest-growing businesses owned or managed by Florida State University alumni, some of whom are responsible for some of the most innovative and profitable companies in America. The official ceremony will be held in February 2020 to honor graduates.
Mr. Wright C. Finney joined the Department of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering in 1992 as an Associate in Research. He earned a BS in Biological Sciences (1975) with minors in chemistry and mathematics from FSU and an MS in Marine Ecology and Systematic Zoology (1978) with specialization in statistics working with Professor Larry Abele (later Provost Abele) at FSU.
