Alumni participation matters!

When it comes to national rankings, U.S. News & World Report considers a wide range of factors, including the alumni participation rate, or the percentage of alumni who make an annual gift to NC State. This means that your gift to the College of Engineering — no matter the amount – directly impacts our national ranking.

Rough microparticles can lead to big problems

New research from NC State, Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the University of Michigan finds that the surface texture of microparticles in a liquid suspension can cause internal friction that significantly alters the suspension’s viscosity — effectively making the liquid thicker or thinner. The finding can help address problems for companies in fields from biopharmaceuticals to chemical manufacturing.

Alumna continues her support of the College

When Rashida Hodge established a scholarship in the College of Engineering, she didn’t name it after herself. Her recent pledge to help fund construction of the newest engineering building on NC State’s Centennial Campus includes naming rights for a foyer in Engineering Building Oval. She won’t put her name on that, either.
