Engineering graduates are facing unemployment if recent reports from around the world are to be believed. Quite recently it was reported that in Kenya, four out of ten students are studying degree programmes that are not accredited by the Engineering Board of Kenya (Unaccredited engineering degrees and unskilled engineers in Africa)....Read More

A junior in biomedical engineering, a graduate in biotechnology and a second-year biomedical sciences student are working on a project that would help people determine whether they are diabetic or not. Guarav Agrawal, Christlin Ponraj and Angelin Ponraj have created Integrated Latrine Technology for Early Diseases Detection according to the University of...Read More

Limestone, CO2 and 3-D printing. Those are the ingredients that researchers at the University of California are using and reusing to create concrete cement that could be more environmentally friendly than current cement. The team says that this is a brand new method of creating building material and has the chance...Read More

It was only two weeks ago that a self-driving car belonging to Google crashed into the side of a bus due to judgment calls the software deemed necessary. As we reported there would be some scrutiny of the engineering behind self-driving car technology and now a robotics expert from Duke University...Read More

The University of Washington's computer science and electrical engineering researchers are putting sonar into smartwatches and the likes in the latest attempt to improve smart device technology and how we interact with it. The researchers indicate that with the new sonar technology a person would be able to interact with mobile...Read More

Like something out of Ant-Man, engineers from Stanford University have put their worker ant-robots to work. They have built six small robots that have mustered up the strength to pull a two-ton car.  In their paper, Let's All Pull Together: Principles for Sharing Large Loads in Microrobot Teams, the researchers debut the MicroTug robots.  The...Read More

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is about to give the thumbs up for releasing mosquitoes that have been genetically engineered. The intention behind this is to cause a reduction of the spread of the Zika virus.  According to Forbes, the mosquitoes will have a "specially inserted gene" that will...Read More
