ISE PhD student Alireza Farasat has been selected to receive UB's Graduate School of Excellence in Teaching Award. Ali's research involves on-line, adapative learning systems, which he has used in several ISE courses. Congratulations!

ISE and SUNY Distinguished Professor Rajan Batta is receiving the IISE Award for Technical Innovation in Industrial Engineering. This award recognizes researchers who have distinguished themselves in one of the following ways:

An article on Futurity reports an international research team led by UB researchers has used a modified 3-D printer and frozen water to create lattice-shaped cubes and a three-dimensional truss with overhangs using graphene oxide, structures that could be an important step toward making graphene commercially viable in electronics, medical diagnostic devices and other industries.

Articles in MSN Australia, MSN New Zealand and Fox Business report about real-life applications for 3-D printing conducted by UB researchers, who have developed a way to 3-D print materials made out of Graphene aerogel, which is so light it can be used in products to soak up oil spills or make “invisibility” cloaks.

ISE Junior Ryan Cribbin has a winning alter-ego as a UB Track and Field shot put star. This weekend he threw 59' 5.5" for a Gold medal at the MAC Championship.
