Our world-class researchers play a vital role in advancing the crucial areas of research needed to solve today’s global challenges. Our faculty includes members of the National Academy of Engineering, the National Academy of Sciences, and the National Academy of Inventors.

Many of our researchers serve on key national and international panels and committees and hundreds of them are fellows of technical and professional societies. We’ve also had dozens of faculty members receive CAREER awards from the National Science Foundation as well as other national and international awards.
