CECS Virtual Faculty Research Talks

Friday, January 30, 2026 noon to 1 p.m.

The UCF College of Engineering and Computer Science (CECS)'s Zoom-cast series is live-streamed every other Friday from noon to 1 p.m., offering 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 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, from the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, viewers can submit questions in real-time and express interest in collaborating. 

The Jan. 30, 2026 presenter lineup:

  • Hao Zheng, Ph.D., Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering: "Building Efficient Computing Infrastructure for Scalable, Energy-Efficient AI"
  • Ivan Haigh, Ph.D., Department of Civil, Environmental and Construction Engineering: "The Silent Protectors: The Challenges Facing Storm Surge Barriers with Climate Change"
  • Kevin Moran, Ph.D., Department of Computer Science: "Toward Assessing and Understanding AI-powered Software Engineering Tools"
