CECS Virtual Faculty Research Talks

New in 2020. The UCF College of Engineering and Computer Science Zoom-cast series is live-streamed every Friday, noon to 1 p.m., offering four 10-minute talks by CECS faculty and a live-chat Q&A. 

Targeted to faculty, scientists and potential industry and government partners, all are invited to Zoom-in and hear presentations by UCF’s engineering and computer science faculty who explain their cutting-edge, pioneering research endeavors in quick, 10-minute snapshots. 

These talks provide an opportunity to get to know — and collaborate with — our faculty who are advancing innovations in all areas of engineering and computer science, including smart city technology, aerospace, energy, modeling and simulation, medicine, advanced materials, cyber security, and more. Each faculty presenter will narrate as they share illustrative slides.

Moderated by Subith Vasu, Ph.D., UCF Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, viewers can submit questions in real-time and express interest in collaborating. 

The August 21 faculty presenter lineup:

• Yang Yang, Ph.D., Dept. of Materials Science and Engineering: "Structural and Interfacial Engineering of Advanced Electrode Materials Towards Renewable Energy Devices"
• Hwan Choi, Ph.D., Dept. of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering: "Analysis of Pathologic Musculoskeletal Dynamics and Developing Smart Assistive Devices to Improve Function for People Wit Disabilities"
• Georgios Apostolakis, Ph.D., Dept. of Civil, Environmental and Construction Engineering: "Hierarchical Multiscale Materials Mechanics, Design and Analysis"
• Damla Turgut, Ph.D., Dept. of Computer Science: "Networking in the Physical World"
