“Quantum technologies are poised to revolutionize how we compute, communicate and sense and this requires engineers that have an interdisciplinary education,” Mines' Peter Aaen said.

In collaboration with colleagues in the United States, China and the Netherlands, Mines Assistant Professor Qin Zhu and Research Assistant Professor Rockwell Clancy are leading a project to study the

Concrete sewers and gutters are very efficient when it comes to moving water quickly. But Colorado School of Mines researchers are looking at integrating natural alternatives to the built environment to help purify and clean groundwater supplies.

Colorado School of Mines, in partnership with Lockheed Martin Space, announce a new global student design challenge open to student teams from any accredited university worldwide.

The Rocky Mountain Industrial Assessment Center will result in shared courses where students from both institutions can learn about how to improve energy efficiency in the building and manufacturing industry.

Researchers at Colorado School of Mines are teaming up with Swedish company Minalyze AB to build an advanced geosciences research laboratory for non-destructive compositional analysis of drill core.

“Our goal is to be the premier institution on research and education on CCUS,” said John Bradford, vice president of global initiatives. “We have the ties with industry, and we have a solution-focused mindset at Mines.”

Hao Zhang, associate professor of computer science, plans to use lessons from social psychology to increase the resilience and robustness of multi-robot systems.

Along with seven other collaborating research universities, Mines will help cultivate deep technology businesses in the Western United States.

“We are excited and proud that Mines and our hometown of Golden will be the test bed for this new technology, which will lead to new developments in how it is improved and scaled up so that the environmental and human benefits can be extended well beyond Mines, Golden, and our state," Mines President Paul C. Johnson said.
