Researchers at the joint college are helping advance the future of quantum computing through a landmark study published in Nature Electronics. The multi-institution research team demonstrated that a novel qubit platform, developed at Argonne National Laboratory by trapping single electrons on solid neon, exhibits noise levels 10 to 10,000 times lower than most traditional qubits. Lower noise allows qubits to retain information longer and operate more reliably for building practical quantum computers.

The findings highlight solid neon as a promising material for scalable quantum technologies and support broader efforts at Florida State University and the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering to establish Tallahassee as a growing hub for quantum science, engineering, and workforce development.

The joint college hosted its Engineering Undergraduate Research Symposium on April 10th, bringing together EUREKA fellows, faculty advisors, and research judges for a day dedicated to showcasing the intellectual talent and research achievements of undergraduate students from across the college’s six engineering departments.

Taking first place and a $1,000 award was Diego Halvorssen, an undergraduate fellow in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering (MAE). Second place and a $500 award went to Isabella Sofia Rodriguez Casasbuenas, an undergraduate fellow in the Department of Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering (IME).

On April 16, 2026, the college held its first-ever Danfoss Graduate Research Symposium and Celebration at the High-Performance Materials Institute (HPMI), in partnership with Danfoss Turbocor. The Graduate Research Competition brought together researchers from across engineering disciplines. Erin Petkus, a doctoral student in the Department of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering, earned first place and was selected as the top presenter among all department participants.

“We are thrilled to be able to host our first graduate student research competition, which highlights the amazing research our graduate students do,” said Kari Evans, assistant dean for graduate studies. The multiyear relationship between Danfoss Turbocor and the joint college funds graduate student career development, academic initiatives and, now, a college-wide research competition. For students, it creates a direct bridge between graduate research and industry, with an executive audience evaluating their work at the final event.

Researchers at the joint college have developed a new AI framework that can predict dangerous E. coli contamination in recreational waterways before traditional lab tests. Led by Nasrin Alamdari and the RIDER Center, the system uses environmental and hydrometeorological data such as rainfall, streamflow, turbidity and temperature to identify contamination risks with about 85% accuracy.

The research, published in Water Research, highlights how delayed testing can harm public health, local tourism and municipal budgets, especially during sewage spills, storms and increasing urban development. Researchers say the predictive model offers a proactive alternative to traditional monitoring by helping water managers respond faster, reduce unnecessary beach closures and better prepare for climate-driven increases in water contamination risk.
