University of Idaho special purpose computers are hurtling toward the edge of the solar system at speeds in excess of 43,000 mph aboard NASA's New Horizons probe.
Young Researchers Blend Interdisciplinary Research and Communication Skills
It's not enough to be on top of your research game; in addition, the next generation of researchers needs to be able to talk about research findings in ways that others can understand. Top undergraduate researchers in the country converged at the University of Idaho this summer for eight weeks of intense research. Though from diverse fields, the students will walk away with one thing in common: first-hand knowledge of the benefits that an interdisciplinary approach brings to a project...
Leading the Pack; Engineering Laboratory Provides High-Tech Innovations for Idaho's Economy
Micro-electronic packaging is the process in which small pieces of technology (chips) are taken and placed on a piece of material that protects them and links them with other technology for uses such as cellular telephones, computers and hybrid-electric vehicles...
