Dr. Magnus Egerstedt, Dean of Engineering at the University of California, Irvine, delivered the closing plenary session on ‘From Coordination to Collaboration in Multi-Robot Systems,’ providing insights into advancements in multi-robot coordination inspired by ecological models. Read More
The trick, said A. Lee Swindlehurst, a professor of electrical engineering and computer science at UC Irvine, is “to find a sweet spot where only the driver’s device is jammed,” regardless of where he or she holds their phone. This is technically feasible, he said, “but it would be a challenging design.” [Subscription required, you can request an electronic copy of the article by sending an email to communications@uci.edu.]
During the summer prior to enrollment, incoming students will receive information regarding several mandatory trainings. These training include lab safety training modules (TANGO) and the Teaching Assistant training (TAPDP). A mandatory BME graduate student orientation will also be held during the first week of classes in the Fall quarter.
Internship opportunities are periodically forwarded to students as they are received by the department. Students can also find internship opportunities on the department's social media websites:
Any questions in regards to internships can be directed to cee@uci.edu.
Amir AghaKouchak, a professor of civil and environmental engineering and earth system sciences at the University of California, Irvine, told me in an interview that because land subsidence occurs in increments, the crisis is usually overlooked. “It lacks the dramatic visibility of acute disasters like earthquakes and floods, allowing authorities to underplay its risks,” says AghaKouchak. In Iran, “this invisibility is a key reason land subsidence remains on the sidelines in national disaster planning, despite its profound long-term consequences,” he adds.
Amir AghaKouchak, an environmental engineering professor at the University of California, Irvine, told Forbes that because this land loss happens gradually, it doesn’t capture public attention the way earthquakes or floods do. “It lacks the dramatic visibility of acute disasters like earthquakes and floods, allowing authorities to underplay its risks,” says AghaKouchak.
The Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Corporate Industry Board was formed in 2007 and is comprised of industry representatives from a variety of electrical engineering and communications technology companies. The board meets to advise and assist academic leadership on curriculum development, student internships and design review, and to serve as a liaison to local industry.
