Stanford Engineering advances the frontiers of science and technology through teaching and research. The future is limited only by imagination and so the possibilities are endless.
Read the latest stories about our priorities in:
Genome Sequencing
Professor Stephen Quake has sequenced his genome at a much lower cost and with a much smaller team than anyone has reported before for a full human sequence.
Sustainable Aviation
Air travel is likely to triple in the next few decades. To minimize the environmental impact of that growth, Stanford aeronautical engineers have begun a wide-ranging research and teaching program.
CAMERA 2.0
Giving people total control of a digital camera’s hardware and software could lead to an explosion of innovation in photography. That’s why Stanford researchers have created an open source device, called “Frankencamera.”
Absorbing Light
A new study shows how to make optimal use of the light-absorbing properties of incredibly thin germanium wires. The research could lead to more efficient solar cells and could also help integrate light with computer chips, making them faster while using less power.
Terman Awards
When the school recognizes its top graduating seniors, the students share the honor with their most inspirational high school teacher. The Terman Awards celebrate a beautiful relationship of intellectual life.
