Research Thrusts
The Samueli School pursues research that is timely, socially responsible and trendsetting. Building on a strong foundation of fundamental engineering areas, ranging from mechanics to electronic devices, four thrust areas have been identified to shape the future of research in the Samueli School. These thrust areas catalyze pioneering research by engaging a broad spectrum of School faculty, drawing researchers from outside of engineering, attracting the most talented graduate students and focusing attention and resources on the most important engineering challenges of our times.

Researchers use Starlink satellites to pinpoint location, similar to GPS
Signals from SpaceX Starlink broadband satellites can be used to pinpoint locations on Earth to within eight meters of accuracy, engineering researchers reported in a new peer-reviewed paper. … The research was conducted by [Zak] Kassas along with Joe Khalife (a postdoctoral fellow at the University of California, Irvine) and Mohammad Neinavaie (a Ph.D. student at UC Irvine). Kassas is also a UC Irvine [assistant] professor and director of the Autonomous Systems Perception, Intelligence, and Navigation (ASPIN) Laboratory, while Khalife and Neinavaie are members of the lab.
