Cornell Engineering is rapidly becoming a leader in engineering education research, a field dedicated to designing effective education systems and learning experiences for students. The insights emerging from this work have the potential to redefine engineering education on campus and far outside it.
An interdisciplinary team of researchers determined that organic residues of plant oils are poorly preserved in calcareous soils from the Mediterranean, leading decades of archaeologists to likely misidentify olive oil in ceramic artifacts.
With the largest gift from a Cornell Engineering alumna in the college’s history, Lisa Walker ’86 has established the Lisa L. Walker 1986 Distinguished Professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, creating an endowed professorship and accompanying research fund to support exceptional faculty.
Cornell researchers have discovered a previously unknown way plants regulate water that is so fundamental it may change plant biology textbooks – and open the door to breeding more drought-tolerant crops.
