Luqi Wang has been awarded a 2022 Quantum Technologies Initiative Scholarship from the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Antennas and Propagation Society, or IEEE AP-S. The $5,000 award from the AP-S Graduate Fellowship Program recognizes Wang’s demonstrated promise and interest in engineering electromagnetics with a focus on quantum technologies.  

James Nelson entered UC Davis as an undergraduate student in electrical engineering. In his senior year he started an internship at the UC Davis Teaching and Research Winery. This work led to a T.J. Rodgers Fellowship in Electrical and Computer Engineering, which supported him for his master's and his Ph.D. studies.

Regardless of their senior design project focus–whether it was on plants, self-driving cars, robots or flying cows–this year’s group of electrical and computer engineering seniors said perseverance, problem solving, project management skills and teamwork were the most valuable takeaways they experienced as part of this year’s senior design projects.

Melisa Ekin Gulseren has been awarded a 2022 Optics and Photonics Education Scholarship by SPIE, the international society for optics and photonics, for her potential contributions to the field of optics, photonics or related field.
