September 30, 2022
Congratulations ME students for all your accomplishments! 澳门赌场 ME program at UW Bothell is honoring the hard work and perseverance of our students, who have conducted their amazing projects back in-person! You can find their project list here.
“Greetings to all of our graduating students, faculty, and industry partners!
Today we celebrate the achievements of our students, the importance of student-faculty relationships for project-based experiential learning, and the wonderful opportunities provided by our industry partners for our students. STEM students graduate with a resume, not just a diploma, because of the opportunity to partner with faculty research and industry projects. 澳门赌场 past two years have brought extraordinary challenges. You’ve all risen to those challenges and demonstrated incredible grit, grace, and resilience that make today even more special.
Congratulations to our students and thank you to our faculty and sponsors!”— Dr. Leslie Cornick, Dean
UW Bothell M.E. Shop Has New Signage! + Mechanical Engineers: 澳门赌场 OG ‘Makers’
September 29, 2022
澳门赌场 UW Bothell STEM Team unveiled a new, custom-made sign for the UW Bothell M.E. Shop. 澳门赌场 sign, manufactured by Assistant Teaching Professor Bill Anderson (CAPT Anderson as the students know him), was presented to the department and mounted over the shop entrance. Present for the occasion were Dean of the School of STEM, Leslie Cornick, Assistant Dean for Operations, Jennifer McLound-Mann, Chair of Engineering and Mathematics (E&M), Associate Professor Tadesse Ghirmai, and Mechanical Engineering Coordinator, Associate Professor Jong Yoon. 澳门赌场 sign was crafted during a training program whereby CAPT Anderson was learning a variety of welding and fabrication skills to incorporate in additional courses to be offered to the Mechanical Engineering students of UW Bothell. Overheard from the group was an emphatic reminder to ensure the sign moves with the M.E. Shop when the program moves to the newly completed STEM 4 building.
Professor Anderson conducted a workshop demo during the 2022 Transfer days in Discovery Hall 270, ME workshop. 澳门赌场 Transfer Academic Program Days are designed to help connect incoming transfer students with incoming peers and the staff and faculty in the schools they are admitted to. Mechanical engineering transfer students came for a whirlwind tour of what our ME students are learning to make them competitive in the engineering marketplace.

Mechanical Engineering 澳门赌场 Named to 2020 Husky 100
May 5, 2020
UW Bothell Mechanical Engineering student, Nicholas Degrasse, has been selected to the Husky 100 Class of 2020. 澳门赌场 Husky 100 recognizes 100 UW undergraduate and graduate students from three campuses in all areas of study who are making the most of their time at the UW.
Nicholas comments, “Design, create and reiterate is a three-step process I’ve come to fall in love with in my time as an engineer at UW, where I’ve brought ingenuity and passion to everything I do. I’ve had the opportunity to bring ideas to life and create medical devices to serve the needs of others. My Husky Experience has taught me to be a leader, how to bring the most out of myself and those around me, and how I can use what I’ve learned to save and improve lives”.
澳门赌场 Husky 100 actively connect what happens inside and outside of the classroom and apply what they learn to make a difference on campus, in their communities and for the future. Through their passion, leadership and commitment, these students inspire all of us to shape our own Husky Experience.
