Meet #FSUStudentStar ⭐ Mani Tyagi, a doctoral candidate in @FSUSciComp! Tyagi’s research at @FloridaState advances the mathematical methods used to model materials, utilizing high-performance computing to solve complex challenges in physics. This work aims to improve the accuracy of how we predict the behavior of materials simulations essential to modern technology. To read the full story, visit: fla.st/OPOL6R37.

.@FloridaState in @abc27 ▶️ A new research project by Ming Ye (@FSU_EOAS / @FSUSciComp) will employ a robot called Sunfish and human divers to create 3D maps of a cave system spanning nearly 45 miles beneath Leon and Wakulla counties. This work aims to find the water sources feeding into the Wakulla Springs basin, which provides drinking water to nearly 10 million people.

Hello, summer! ☀️ To all of our @FSUartssciences students, faculty and staff starting classes today, we hope your summer semester is off to a wonderful start. For more information on summer sessions A, B, C and F as well as important @FloridaState deadlines, visit registrar.fsu.edu/summer-2026-ac…. @FSUDSA

Where do alligators go during a drought? 🐊 @NPR and @WFSUNews recently interviewed Ming Ye (@FSU_EOAS / @FSUSciComp) for an expert's opinion on the current drought across the U.S. South, particularly in north Florida. To check out the full article, visit: bit.ly/42SJebW. @FloridaState @FSUResearch

It's not too late! Applications for @FloridaState's Interdisciplinary Data Science Master's Degree Program are open through July 1. To start your application, visit datascience.fsu.edu/students/admis…. @FSUComputerSci @FSUSciComp @FSUMathematics @StatisticsFSU

We couldn't be more excited for our newest #FSU2026 graduates crossing the stage at @FloridaState this week! 🎓🎉 Nearly a quarter of the 7,190 degrees FSU will award this spring are to students from Arts and Sciences disciplines. To meet four exceptional students and learn about their unique work in @FSUSciComp, @PsychologyFSU, @FSUMathematics and @fsu_englishdept, visit: fla.st/9VUPWT0O. To virtually attend the commencement ceremonies via livestream, visit commencement.fsu.edu.

.@WCTV recently interviewed Ming Ye (@FSU_EOAS / @FSUSciComp), who is set to map underwater caves in Wakulla Springs as part of new research funded by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (@FLDEPNews)! To watch the full interview, visit: bit.ly/4t1t0Ih. @FSUResearch @FloridaState

There's only ONE week left until @FloridaState's spring commencement ceremonies, and we're celebrating our #FSU2026 graduates! 🎓 Cole Pridgen will cross the stage on Friday evening to accept his bachelor's in computational science from the FSU Department of Scientific Computing (@FSUSciComp). His Honors in the Major research analyzed various convolutional neural networks — a type of deep learning model — and assessed their ability to classify lymphoma subtypes. "This experience was impactful toward not just my own personal diagnosis with Burkitt's lymphoma, but understanding the importance of high-level accuracy within clinical applications and the use of computational methods in medical practice." After graduation, Pridgen will pursue a master's in data science at @Columbia, and this summer, he'll be a business operations analyst for Hatch, a platform for AI-driven business solutions. For more on FSU's upcoming commencement ceremonies, visit: fla.st/HAF2Y45I. To learn more about Pridgen's FSU journey, keep an eye out for our upcoming feature spotlighting some of our outstanding @FSUartssciences graduates!

Ming Ye (@FSU_EOAS/@FSUSciComp) will map underwater caves in Wakulla Springs as part of new research funded by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (@FLDEPNews)!
