Friends, if you want a podcast that sticks the landing. Then you want a podcast with graduating senior in electrical and computer engineering Jacob Blanding .  (Emphasis on the sticks.)

If the story of recent computer science and software engineering graduates Donna Jackson and Jamie Whitehead tells us anything, it's that the world needs more mothers. And motherboards.

Pooriya Nezhadfar is his name. Process structure property relationships is his game. Find out just why GE Aerospace named the latest kudos-collecting luminary to emerge from NCAME as its lead additive manufacturing specialist before he even earned his PhD. From dust to thrust, this guy's a must.

Hear 18-year-old award-winnin', Russian-speakin', civil engineerin' wunderkind Morgan Burk discuss her past, present and future.  She can't drink. But, boy can she think. (Oh, and actually, by credits, she's a senior.)

Do you like to hear stories about mentors changing students lives? Psychometrist success stories? Do you want... Moore... out of a podcast? Well, you're welcome. 

Computer Science, finance, battle bots, volunteerism, picking Auburn over the University of Pennsylvania...  Ladies and gentlemen, Wesley Lowman. 

Diversity,  equity, inclusion, working to perhaps one day repair his own heart with tissue grown from his own heart... it's all in a day's work for chemical engineering grad student Justin Harvell. 

You'll be listening to our interview with NASA Marshall Space Flight Center deputy director, Auburn aerospace engineering alumnus and noted rocket graffiti artist Joseph Pelfrey in 3, 2, 1... 

Kovakas, Grace — she of the Makerspace. Listen to chemical engineering junior and makerspace maestro Grace Kovakas reflect on the rousing resource available on the bottom of the Brown-Kopel Engineering Student Achiement Center, and on navigating "the Big Three," on the latest episode of the award-winning #GINNing Podcast.

If you've struggled to understand the synergistic effects of blending triglycerides and biomass based hydrothermal liquefied biocrude over different catalysts supports in order to produce renewable fuels, then today's your lucky day.  Listen to biosytems doctoral student Poulami Roy, winner of a Best Presenter Award at the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers' (...

Building rockets, autonomous vehicles... oh, sure — obviously. But... did you know that Auburn mechanical engineers can also... make it rain? Just ask Auburn point guard Wendell Green who recently called mechanical engineering senior Chandler Leopard "the best shooter I’ve ever played with in my life." Hope you like classical, friends. Because it's time for a little string music. 

You MAYO may not like this episode. But assistant chemical engineering professor Michael Howard is one of the nation's leading collector of colloidal kudos. His latest is from a little outfit called the National Science Foundation. Buckle up.

Smart people like the 1992 movie "Sneakers." So it's no wonder Sam Mulder , new associate research professor in Auburn's Department of Computer Science and Software Engineering, can quote it. 

From O‘ahu to Orange Beach, it's been one heck of a ride. Buckle up and get your ears on for an environmental engineering education experience par excellence courtesy humble Joel Hayworth, the Elton Z. and Lois G. Huff Associate Professor of civil and environmental engineering, and the director of the newly announced Auburn University Gulf Coast Research Station. 

Materials engineering maven and pageant circuit veteran Reagan Handley is bringing as much poise to prosthetics and orthotics as she did to the runway. Her school? Auburn University. Her talent?  Being smart.

From the Loveliest Village to the Saloj Village , industrial and systems engineering junior Ellie Hungerford is changing the world.
