Protecting & 改善我们的世界

We're proud of our long tradition of cultivating innovation in science and technology. Our researchers use their ideas to contribute not only to their fields, 对他们的社区也是如此. DU student and faculty researchers have helped increase the understanding of the relationship between momentum and light, developed a new imaging system to measure oxygen levels within the human body and worked to improve cyber-security technology.

We do everything we can to help our student researchers make their contributions felt both locally and globally. Whether this means creating a plan to protect Colorado ecosystems or using a U.S. Department of Energy grant to improve solar technology worldwide, our students have the opportunity to use their unique perspectives and skills to improve our world.

为复杂问题提供创造性的解决方案

Student and faculty researchers consistently confirm our belief in the power of creativity with their unique ideas. A major current project underway at DU is the investigation of the use of carbon nanotubes, 一种比人类头发细一万倍的材料, as a component of air-conditioning and refrigeration systems. The project has the potential to greatly lessen the environmental impact of such systems, and could very well lead to the most significant advances in refrigeration technology since the late 18th century.

Past accomplishments include using insights gained from playing Chinese Checkers to create a new method of searching computer memory and developing games to improve early math education. These are just a few of the unconventional and creative solutions our researchers use in their work. 通过鼓励像这样的个人想法, we can maximize our chance to arrive at conclusions that would be impossible to reach by conventional means.

无人系统研究所

Before Amazon can deliver packages by drone, serious technological issues need to be addressed. The DU 无人系统研究所 works to tackle these issues by developing a super light weight radar system that can be used to sense and avoid, and by providing significant technical advances to automated flight capabilities. Currently, the Institute is working on issues of lift and drag with an unconventional wing design.
