Boise State Research Professor Honored at International Meeting on DNA Computing and Molecular Programming

e-Girls

Bernard Yurke, a research professor in the College of Engineering, was awarded the 2009 Tulip Award at the 15th International Meeting on DNA Computing and Molecular Programming held in June at the University of Arkansas.

Under the auspices of the International Society for Nanoscale Science, Computation and Engineering, the annual conference is a platform for leading researchers in computer science, mathematics, chemistry, physics, molecular biology and nanotechnology to present significant results and build interdisciplinary projects. It began in 1995 after the publication of landmark work by Leonard Adleman, a theoretical computer scientist who opened the door to the relatively new field of DNA computing. | more

ENGR 120 Students Test Their Mouse Trap Cars

ENGR 120 is a freshman class where we introduce various engineering disciplines through a series of lectures and hands on projects. For the Mechanical Engineering Module, students were assigned to design, build and test their mouse trap cars. The design included: building chassis, drive of the wheels, material selection, alignment of the wheels, assembly with the power source which was the spring on the mouse trap. The challenges were how far the car traveled and how fast it hit a target distance. The students had lot of fun building, testing and learning the basic principles of energy and mechanics of design.
