Undergraduate Students
- A group of mechanical engineering seniors at the ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ have designed a water-purification system called Puresip, which is housed inside a bottlecap and shines ultraviolet radiation through a straw to purify the water as the user drinks.
- A group of mechanical engineering seniors at the ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ have designed an adjustable lower limb prosthetic called OneLimb Assembly, which will help reduce the number of new fittings and assemblies.
- A group of mechanical engineering seniors at the ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ have helped bridge the gap between athletic performance and engineering by designing a sleep cabin prototype, where athletes can relax and recover in optimal conditions between games.
- The Engineering Partnership Program was recently awarded a VentureWell Grant that will help make innovation and entrepreneurship a key feature of the program, which allows students to earn a CU ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ degree while living and going to school in Gunnison, CO.
