Travis Dalton uses artificial intelligence tools in his classroom as an aid in teaching students how to code. But while his students can use AI to generate a website, he also emphasizes the need to develop their own skills.
Lingyu Yu is working on a $1 million DOE-funded project that not only aims to help implement additional spent nuclear fuel safeguards with machine learning technology but will also provide opportunities for undergraduate students through Promoting Inclusive and Equitable Research.
The trend in industrial engineering is not surprising based on recent data published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, which estimates that employment is expected to increase by 12% by 2032.
In recognition of Mechanical Engineering Distinguished Professor Emeritus Wally Peters contributions and commitment to students' personal and professional growth, the college has established the Dr. Wally Peters Scholarship Endowment Fund.
A new student space and endowment at the college will strengthen student resources and further the college's commitment to accessible education.
Imagine an Alexa-sized wireless device placed on your nightstand could monitor your vital signs, heart rate, breathing and even the body's sleep position. Computer science doctoral candidate Aakriti Adhikari is working toward making this technology a reality.
Forest Agostinelli is working on a National Science Foundation-funded project that combines two artificial intelligence methods, heuristic search and machine learning, to solve complex problems without human assistance.
Freshman Harry Weaver did not just bring his "I [Heart] Nuclear Energy" sign to be on TV during ESPN's College GameDay broadcast. He also wanted to share one of his passions.
Civil Engineering Associate Professor Nicole Berge and alumna Katie Johnson recently received prestigious awards from the South Carolina Section of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE).
The first in his family to attend college, Bill Bloking’s engineering degree prepared him for careers at Exxon and BHP — and for boardrooms around the globe. His William F. Bloking First-Generation Scholars Fund will support Molinaroli College of Engineering and Computing students and programs.
Electrical Engineering Professor Krishna Mandal began research into developing a groundbreaking advancement in replacing metal contact with diamond and silicon carbide for use in ultraviolet radiation detection technology and nuclear medicine.

Civil and Environmental Engineering Associate Professor Shamia Hoque recently started a research project that aims to better understand the mechanisms driving the interaction of viruses within the built environment and surrounding surfaces.
A high school chemistry assignment without any instructions did not deter Justin Jordan from pursuing STEM studies. Rather, it started a passion for chemical engineering.
Zack Simpson knew he would pursue a career in a STEM field. But geotechnical engineering, a branch of civil engineering that focuses on soil and rock mechanics, was not his anticipated path.
Civil engineering graduate Deepal Eliatamby left Sri Lanka to find opportunity and freedom. He found it at USC and is now paying it forward.
Within the Molinaroli College of Engineering and Computing and university community, the Artificial Intelligence Institute of USC provides experts to partner with researchers and groups for training or implementing AI.
Instructor Bhavana Ginjupally's decision to study computer science was not driven by a lifelong passion, but rather curiosity and circumstance.
The one keyword to represent Junsoo Lee's research is multi-agent systems. He also believes in the importance of bridging people from different backgrounds and providing leadership, which is apparent in his research and work with students.
A two-year co-op with Merck and working alongside Melissa Moss at the college's Protein Aggregation and Neuroinflammation Laboratory is giving doctoral candidate Amy Veihdeffer the resources for advancing the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.
Professor Vignesh Narayanan from the Artificial Intelligence Institute of the University of South Carolina recently started an NSF-funded research project that aims to understand the vulnerabilities of learning-based controllers and enhance an understanding of possible cyberattacks.
