Engineering Energy & Environmental Institute
In 1999, the College of Engineering formed what is now called the Engineering Energy & Environmental Institute (E3I) to highlight environmental research and educational activities in the College.
Engineers work on many different environmental topics including water purification, thermoacoustics using benign gases for cooling, analysis of indoor environments to provide safe living spaces, the development and application of remote sensing platforms for studying the environment, and others outlined on this website.
The E3I now also focuses on energy research and education as well, with notable research work in biofuels production, solar, and wind energy research.
