Project Description The Center for Infrastructure, Energy and Space Testing (CIEST) houses a large 400 g-ton centrifuge (the 2nd largest in the US). This centrifuge has recently been upgraded with a shake table so that can input scaled earthquake motions into a scaled model of soil-structure systems. Additional upgrades include...

Project Description A Human Landing System must robustly provide for the environmental and metabolic needs of the crew from the point of departure from Gateway, throughout the surface mission and until their return. Specifically, the Environmental Control and Life Support System (ECLSS) must provide a breathable atmosphere, potable water, food...

Project Description We are investigating how sanitation systems can be adapted to better meet household needs and preferences in rural Peru. We are using interviews and surveys to better understand benefits and aspirations, including how those related to social well-being, are tied to sanitation. The DLA will work with a...

Project Description Many applications of drop-based microfluidics have been explored in recent years, ranging from drug targeting to micro-chemical reactors. Understanding the physics of drop motion in microchannels is key to provide insights when designing such applications. This project investigates fundamental aspects of the behavior of droplets in microchannels via...

Project Description Synthetic biology has the potential to lead to new or more efficient production of medicines, fuels, and other important compounds. Crucial to the success of synthetic biology is effective standards for the storage and sharing of genetic design knowledge between researchers and institutions. This project will develop SynBioHub3,...

Project Description This project is working to improve the performance and ease-of-use of computational tools commonly used for population genetics - these tools are used to generate and test biological hypotheses about human origins, evolution, and ancestry. In particular, the student on this project will be working in the C...

Project Description In this longitudinal study, your role would involve collecting and analyzing data on how influences (student backgrounds, identity, learning experiences, etc.) shape global engineering (GE) students' career and social justice aspirations. In particular, we are using critical race theory (CRT) and social cognitive career theory (SCCT) to look...

Project Description The Marshall Fire swept across Louisville, Superior, and Unincorporated Boulder County, destroying over a thousand homes. In the aftermath of the fire, affected homeowners were encouraged to come together to engage in the rebuilding process in order to extract benefits like expedient rebuilding and cost savings. Collective action...

Project Description This Building a Legacy grant will collaborate between CU Boulder's College of Engineering and Applied Sciences (CEAS) and Tuskegee University's School of Architecture and Construction Science and Management (The Taylor School). Â鶹ÒùÔº from both universities will pioneer a "living-learning lab" through design-build projects centered on socially and ecologically...

Project Description The Future of Work Collaboratory (FWC) at CU has two open positions for undergrad research assistants. The FWC is an interdisciplinary research effort across Civil Engineering, Computer Science, and Psychology. It is funded by the National Science Foundation. After two years of R&D and prototype testing, we are...
