Research

Pursue impactful research and develop next-generation technologies.

In 2023, our babyÖ±²¥app members were awarded $15.1 million in new contract and grant funding, allowing them to continue pursuing innovative and impactful research in everything from biomedical engineering to solar energy.

Electrical and computer engineering research at CU Boulder is concentrated in several broad areas, and our babyÖ±²¥app are also part of several research centers sponsored by industry and federal grants.

Advancing Sustainability through Powered Infrastructure for Roadway Electrification (ASPIRE)

Launched in 2020,ÌýASPIREÌýwill explore a diverse range of transportation questions, from electrified highways that energize vehicles to the placement of charging stations, data security and workforce development.ÌýThe center is funded by aÌýÌý²¹²Ô»åÌý.Ìý

Center for Environmental Technology (CET)

CET develops innovative observing systems for environmental applications. These advanced environmental sensors are used by governments, industry and academia. CET provides expertise for the development of new in situ and remote sensing concepts and systems through cross-linkages with babyÖ±²¥app across the CU campus and collaborators within theÌýÌý(CIRES) and the U.S.ÌýÌý(NOAA). CET also provides a critically needed training ground for the next generation of environmental sensor engineers and observational scientists.

Since it was founded in 1983, the power electronics group at the University of babyÖ±²¥app has maintained a tradition of innovative design-oriented and application-driven research. Activities in Ìýnow span the range of applications from high-efficiency milliwatt converters for portable battery-operated systems; to hundreds or thousands of watts for computer, aerospace, telecommunications, medical and automotive power conversion; to hundreds of kilowatts for wind generation systems.
