Welcome new students
The College of Engineering saw a record number of applications (more than 11,000) for the undergraduate program at Michigan, leading to one of the largest, most diverse, and best prepared classes ever. We'll welcome them into ECE when it comes time to declare. Meanwhile, we are welcoming more than 200 new graduate students to ECE. Go Blue! |

Memristors: research + commercialization
Prof. Wei Lu is leading a $5M research project to build alternative computer hardware that could process images and video 1,000 times faster with 10,000 times less power than today's systems. Based on the same memristor technology, his company, Crossbar, Inc. is getting close to introducing RRAM into the market – which could disrupt the memory market.

Lab Safety: don't let this happen to you!
ECE created a series of 4 brief videos to emphasize the importance of specific aspects of lab safety. The videos are meant to be humorous – they do not reflect anything that's actually happened in our labs! Please feel free to share them.

SHOUT: censorship-resistant microblogging - with video
SHOUT is an app developed by EECS undergraduate and graduate students that provides a way to communicate with others in close proximity, rather than those on a social network. It works even when there is no network infrastructure, providing an alternative to a centralized service like Twitter than can be disabled or subject to censorship. |
