Zhiting Tian was recently selected for the @DARPA Director's Fellowship. Congratulations Zhiting! @CornellEng engineering.cornell.edu/mae/2025/08/01…

Student-designed tech headed to @Space_Station: A pair of student-led projects that feature small, low-cost satellites and light sails are headed to the ISS for testing. @CornellMAE news.cornell.edu/stories/2025/0…

“People are so willing to converse and be friendly. I like that it feels very much like a community where people know each other and actually care about it. They participate here … it’s not one of those towns where people just stay to themselves." -- Lexi Barrow, @CornellMAE

Scientist have developed a soft robotic #gripper that can “stamp-inject” leaves gently to introduce probes and genes for precision #agriculture. @CornellMAE Learn more in Science #Robotics: scim.ag/448QrWF

Have you ever wondered how research works at Cornell Engineering? We've put together a video guide to help you get to know us! See our labs, meet our faculty and students, and learn why research matters. engineering.cornell.edu/pacemaker-of-p…

Congratulations to the @CornellMAE 2025 graduates!!! @CornellEng @Cornell

Congratulations to all of our B.S., M.Eng., M.S., and Ph.D. graduates!! #Cornell2025

A Cornell-led collaboration has hit the trifecta of sustainability technology: The group developed a low-cost method to produce carbon-free “green” hydrogen via solar-powered electrolysis of seawater. @CornellEng news.cornell.edu/stories/2025/0…

On April 8, Meredith Silberstein will share the vision of a future where bioengineering transforms how we live, a world powered by living materials. The talk will delve into the role of the Engineered Living Materials Institute in developing these transformative technologies.

Faster isn’t always better when it comes to high-speed materials science, according to new @CornellEng research showing that tiny metal particles bond best at a precise supersonic speed. @PNASNews @CornellMAE @CornellMSE @NSF news.cornell.edu/stories/2025/0…

Are you working on simulation or design in any area of engineering? This is your chance to present your work, compete in the Student Showcase & Poster Competition, and connect with industry leaders.

A @Cornell-led collaboration has devised a method for designing metals and alloys that can withstand extreme impacts: introducing nanometer-scale “speed bumps” that suppress a fundamental transition that controls deformation. @CommsMaterials @CornellMAE news.cornell.edu/stories/2025/0…

Alpha CubeSat is in Houston, waiting for its trip to space! @CornellEng #AlphaCubeSat youtube.com/shorts/yQ5ndgg…

“There are a lot of robots that are powered hydraulically, we’re the first to use hydraulic fluid as the battery...providing the energy for the system and providing the force to get it to move.” @OrganicRobotics @ScienceAdvances techcrunch.com/2025/01/27/cor…

“Embodied energy”: In the same way that terrestrial life evolved from ocean swimmers to land walkers, soft robots are progressing, too, thanks to recent @CornellEng research in battery development and design. @ScienceAdvances @CornellMAE @Cornell_CBE news.cornell.edu/stories/2025/0…

Excellent example of engineers having a direct effect on important policies!
