The College of Engineering at Boston University is a community of students, faculty, and staff focused on advancing science and technology through research and discovery, and preparing students to be technology leaders in the 21st century. Undergraduate students participate in a comprehensive core curriculum that sets the foundation for their engineering studies while delivering a breadth of education across the humanities, mathematics, and social and natural sciences. Through an array of majors and concentrations, they can study aerospace, biomedical, computer, electrical, manufacturing or mechanical engineering, as well as nanotechnology, and energy technologies and environmental engineering. They also have the opportunity work side-by-side with research faculty in a number of modern, high-tech facilities. Graduate students partake in myriad programs and research opportunities leading to doctoral or master’s degrees in biomedical, computer, computer systems, electrical, manufacturing, mechanical, global manufacturing, photonics, systems, or materials science and engineering.

Chirality dependence of the radial breathing phonon mode density in single wall carbon nanotubes
(2006-09-01)A mass and spring model is used to calculate the phonon mode dispersion for single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) of arbitrary chirality. The calculated dispersions are used to determine the chirality dependence of the ... -
2D Raman band splitting in graphene: charge screening and lifting of the K-point Kohn anomaly
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-10-19)Pristine graphene encapsulated in hexagonal boron nitride has transport properties rivalling suspended graphene, while being protected from contamination and mechanical damage. For high quality devices, it is important to ... -
Horn-like space-coiling metamaterials toward simultaneous phase and amplitude modulation
(Nature Publishing Group, 2018-04-10)Acoustic metasurfaces represent a family of planar wavefront-shaping devices garnering increasing attention due to their capacity for novel acoustic wave manipulation. By precisely tailoring the geometry of these engineered ... -
Mems device with large out-of-plane actuation and low-resistance interconnect and methods of use
(2017-05-18)The present application is directed to a MEMS device. The MEMS device includes a substrate having a first end and a second end extending along a longitudinal axis, the Substrate including an electrostatic actuator. The ... -
Cortical gamma rhythms modulate NMDAR-mediated spike timing dependent plasticity in a biophysical model
(Public Library of Science, 2009-12-01)Spike timing dependent plasticity (STDP) has been observed experimentally in vitro and is a widely studied neural algorithm for synaptic modification. While the functional role of STDP has been investigated extensively, ... -
Representation of time-varying stimuli by a network exhibiting oscillations on a faster time scale
(Public Library of Science, 2009-05-01)Sensory processing is associated with gamma frequency oscillations (30–80 Hz) in sensory cortices. This raises the question whether gamma oscillations can be directly involved in the representation of time-varying stimuli, ... -
Standardizing design performance comparison in microfluidic manufacturing
(IWBDA 2018, 2018-08)Microfluidic devices published in literature today lack sufficient information for automating the physical design process. Moreover, the constantly changing landscape of manufacturing and technological requirements poses ... -
Automating functional enzyme screening & characterization
(International Workshop on Bio-Design Automation (IWBDA), 2018-08-03)Microfluidics continue to gain traction as an inexpensive alternative to standard multi-well plate-based, and flow cytometry- based, assay platforms. These devices are especially useful for the types of ultra-high throughput ... -
A reverse predictive model towards design automation of microfluidic droplet generators
(International Workshop on Bio-Design Automation (IWBDA), 2018-08-03)Droplet-based microfluidic devices in comparison to test tubes can reduce reaction volumes 10^9 times and more due to the encapsulation of reactions in micro-scale droplets [4]. This volume reduction, alongside higher ... -
Elastic waves in a soft electrically conducting solid in a strong magnetic field
(2017-05)Shear wave motion of a soft, electrically-conducting solid in the presence of a strong magnetic field excites eddy currents in the solid. These, in turn, give rise to Lorentz forces that resist the wave motion. ...
