EECS faculty engage in diverse research activities from massive networks involving machine-to-machine and human-to-human, and human-to-machine interactions all the way down to nano-devices and particles. The research efforts led by the EECS faculty are categorized into three major thrusts, namely, (i) Systems, (ii) Circuits and Devices, and (iii) Computer Engineering.
The Samueli School of Engineering is at the forefront of interdisciplinary engineering research and technology, and is home to and affiliated with more than a dozen research centers and experimental facilities.
The UCI Department of Material Science and Engineering in the Samueli School of Engineering is anticipating openings in the Researcher Series throughout the academic year 2024-2025. These positions offer a stimulating array of research and training opportunities within the various labs in the department.
“We call our chip ‘beyond 5G’ because the combined speed and data rate that we can achieve is two orders of magnitude higher than the capability of the new wireless standard,” explained UCI electrical engineering and computer science professor Payam Heydari. “[O]perating in a higher frequency means that you and I and everyone else can be given a bigger chunk of the bandwidth offered by carriers.” Hossein Mohammadnezhad, lead author of the academic paper announcing the project, says that the “new transceiver is the first to provide end-to-end capabilities in this part of the spectrum.”
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.
Taking blood pressure, a routine task in clinics, gives a one-time snapshot of an individual’s condition, but people who need frequent monitoring of blood pressure must return continuously to the clinic or take their blood pressure at home. In addition, devices that measure blood pressure, known as blood pressure cuffs, can be uncomfortable for some individuals. Two engineering students invented a device that makes possible continuous blood pressure monitoring.
Constantinos V. Chrysikopoulos: Environmental Engineering, fate and transport of contaminants in the subsurface, acoustically enhanced remidiation of auquifers contaminated with multicomponent nonaqueous phase liquids, virus transport in saturated as well as unsaturated porus and fractured media, polydisperse colloid transport in fractured media, and reactive contaminant/colloid co-transport in the subsurface.
The M.Eng degree prepares its graduates for employment in industry, and equips students to maximize career opportunities as technical leaders. In addition to advanced specialized technical training, the M.Eng degree provides engineering leadership and entrepreneurship, applicable hands-on learning, and team-oriented capstone projects. The program prepares students to become leaders.
Important Features:
The Fire Program Analysis Fire-Occurrence Database was developed in 2013 by the U.S. Forest Service and since been updated five times. It incorporates basic information such as ignition location, discovery date and final wildfire size. The revised database now includes many new environmental and social factors, such as topography and vegetation, social vulnerability and economic justice metrics, and practical attributes such as the distance from the ignition to the nearest road. … Other co-authors of the paper are … Amir AghaKouchak, University of California, Irvine.
