Did you know 3D printing is helping make prosthetic limbs more affordable and customizable?

For many students, engineering starts with questions like this. Through hands-on projects and real-world examples, CSU engineering students are introduced to the many ways engineering can improve lives and solve complex challenges.

Hear from CSU biomedical and mechanical alumni Garrison Hayes about how he used his personal experience with prosthetics and knowledge of engineering concepts outside of the classroom.

One of the best parts of the first-year engineering experience is the sense of community that forms right away. Students get to explore different engineering disciplines, tackle hands-on projects, and start building connections with classmates who may become future teammates, collaborators, and friends.

We've also made room in the curriculum for students to do more of what excites them. By freeing up 12 credits, engineering students have greater flexibility to pursue opportunities beyond their major. Whether that's studying abroad, picking up a minor, joining a club, conducting research, or simply exploring new interests along the way.

Earlier this month, our first-year engineering students showcased innovative solutions to one of the world’s most urgent challenges: access to clean water. 💧 Through the Engineering Grand Challenges course, students spent the semester researching, designing, prototyping, and testing ideas focused on making safe, reliable water more accessible to communities in need.

Hearing students share their passion, creativity, and problem-solving skills made this event especially impactful and gave us an exciting glimpse into the future of engineering.

Students, before registering for classes, take a look at our new 12 flexible credits plan, Engineering Plus, to see how you can make the most of your college experience. Here are a few ways these credits can be used:

*Build an engineering concentration
*Study abroad
*Participate in a co-op
*Take business or entrepreneurship courses

You can also apply credits toward an accelerated master’s program (AMP), getting a head start in your college journey! Visit our website to see how you can use the 12 'free' credits towards your major.

Last summer, we reached out to students to tell us a little about their internship experiences. What does a summer internship look like, and how do you find one?

Meet Isa Fontana! Isa just graduated from Colorado State University with her B.S. in computer engineering with a concentration in aerospace systems. Now a full-time employee there, Isa worked as an intern at the United Launch Alliance (ULA), and is the first feature in our Internship Takeover Series.

Our new construction engineering program is preparing the next generation of leaders to bridge design, construction, communication, and problem-solving in an industry that continues to shape communities across Colorado and beyond.

Backed by a $6.6 million investment and strong industry partnerships, the program gives students hands-on opportunities to see projects through from concept to completion. They're also building leadership and technical skills needed for the future of construction.

"The ideal construction engineer is curious, hard-working, and emotionally intelligent," said Keith Meyer, interim director of the program. "Construction engineering requires leadership and excellent communication skills, and the best construction engineers are adaptive problem-solvers who thrive in a rapidly changing environment."

Campus feels a little quieter already. We’re definitely missing our engineering seniors and the energy they brought to the classroom. They’ve left a lasting mark on our college and community.

We're hoping they’re taking time to enjoy some well-earned rest and celebrate everything they’ve achieved. We’re so proud of this graduating class and can’t wait to see where their next chapter takes them!

Six weeks on the Atlantic Ocean, countless drone landings on a rocking ship, and finally, the moment Colorado State researchers had been waiting for.

While chasing thunderstorms near the equator, postdoctoral scholar Nick Falk and graduate student Christine Neumaier captured rare measurements of cold pools, helping scientists better understand how ocean storms form and evolve.

“It is really important to understand what the observed properties of cold pools actually are because they happen every single day and have a large influence on exactly when and where the storms occur,” said Neumaier.
