    Drexel Researchers First to Detect Air Quality Effects of Natural Gas Extraction in Pennsylvania's Marcellus Shale Region

    May 21, 2015

    A team led by environmental engineers from Drexel University are the first independent researchers to take a closer look at the air quality effects of natural gas extraction in the Marcellus Shale region of Pennsylvania. The group used a mobile air quality monitoring vehicle to survey regional air quality and pollutant emissions at 13 sites including wells, drilling rigs, compressor stations and processing areas.

  • Engineering To Offer Courses for ‘Renaissance People’

    May 13, 2015

    When thinking about the new slate of engineering courses, the term “Renaissance man” comes to Bruce Eisenstein’s mind.

    “Philosophically, we’ve all heard the phrase, ‘Renaissance man.’ At the time of the Renaissance, someone like Leonardo Da Vinci could know everything there was to know,” said Eisenstein, PhD, vice dean of the College of Engineering. “He knew arts, he knew science, he knew medicine — he knew everything.”

    College of Engineering Undergraduates Win Goldwater Scholarships

    May 01, 2015

    Universities are able to nominate up to four students for consideration for the Goldwater Scholarship, a highly prestigious award that recognizes the nation’s top undergraduates committed to cutting-edge STEM research careers. In an unusual move, Drexel’s Goldwater Committee selected two students from the same lab this year. In an even more unusual move, both students received the award from the Goldwater Foundation, 2 of only 68 engineering students selected nationally this year. The students are Anjli Patel and Anthony Abel, and the lab is Dr. Jason Baxter’s Nanomaterials for Energy Applications and Technology (NEAT) Lab.
