Auburn native, former Tim Cook Scholar and doctoral student Deena Sayegh chose to study industrial and systems engineering because she has a passion for efficiency in every workplace and believes that industrial engineering can be applied to any environment. You're welcome, Mercedes-Benz!

Auburn engineers are making an impact in their own backyard with a stormwater project to protect and improve water quality at Hickory Dickory Park. And without the aid of Stormwater Research Facility phenom Aidan Bosman, it just wouldn't be the same. Listen to the civil engineering GRA discuss how a public playground has found the town and gown on new common ground on the latest episode of the best podcast in higher education.

Derek Tournear was named as the inaugural director of the Space Development Agency when it was established in March 2019. He was just named inaugural director of space innovation for Auburn University. But his greatest recent distinction just may be his appearance on the best podcast in higher education.

She's an honors software engineering student. She's a Cupola Ambassador. She's a Los Alamos intern. A McLeod Software developer. Yep, things sure are adding up for Addy Lee.

Mallory Holland, a senior in the Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering, is Auburn's new Miss Homecoming. Find out why — and other things — on the latest episode of the best podcast in higher education.

On the latest episode of the best podcast in higher education, aerospace doctoral student Harris Putra drones on and on about the subject he knows best.

Extra mile? Thy name is Kyle — Margelle Kyle, a Texas-hailing mechanical engineering honors student who's already wedded her passion for biomechanics with the Auburn Creed in order to meet a critical need.

This week, the #GINNing Gang sits down Iván Nail-Ulloa, a Chile-hailing mechanical engineering postdoctoral fellow (and pal to penguins everywhere) aiming to revolutionize the way safety professionals assess injury risk on factory floors and similar industrial settings.

Pamphlet packing, college fair traveling, #GINNing gabbing. For engineering recruitment administrator Haylee Dorrill, it's all in a day's work.

Listen to Nathan Moore, new assistant director of the National Center for Asphalt Technology's famed test track, discuss the past and future of that glorious 1.7 mile loop on this, its 25th anniversary year.

Yes, it's absolutely safe to say it. The NIH says it. The NSF says it. Even the Francis Family Associate Professor in the Department of Materials Engineering himself admits it on the latest episode of the best podcast in higher education: In the field of rapid immunodiagnostics, one name lights up the sensors more than any other... Pengyu Chen.

Just when you think weed research has gone to pot, along comes Hailey Rhodes, a 2025 Auburn biosystems engineering graduate and brand new research engineer for the Auburn University Rural Partnership Institute.

From researching hydrogels for space transportation to using sound to boost pollination, Jean-Francois Louf is a research renaissance man. Listen to the Department of Chemical Engineering's latest NSF CAREER Award recipient discuss his journey from Nice the Beautiful to the Loveliest Village on the latest episode of the best podcast in higher education.

Kate Shaw is trusting the process — the bioprocess. The Auburn senior took that sweet Pathway to the Plains to pursue the ever versatile bioprocess engineering degree. And, as you'll find out, that one decision has led to a lot precision.

From AUSME to the RFID, there's nothing artificial about Soundarya Korlapati's intelligence. Listen to the doctoral student in computer science and software engineering discuss her leading role in Auburn's new AI-powered tool transforming how researchers discover one another, form collaborations and pursue complex, cross-disciplinary challenges on the latest episode of the best podcast in higher education.

You have to hand it to Peden Jones. He really has a grasp on the mechanics of 3D printing — and he's not stingy with it. Why, when they came calling, he lent the College of Liberal Arts a helping hand without hesitation. No sir, it's not hard to put a finger on what makes this mechanical engineering graduate research assistant special. Simply put, he believes in the human touch — and the almost-human, too.

Mechanical engineering sophomore Eliana Floyd grew up watching racing with her dad. She's been into cars for as long as she can remember. So, for her, just standing in pit lane would have made the hours in the Makerspace designing, cutting and clamping panels, bleeding brakes and slapping duct tape on the frame worth it. But to actually win a race — a national championship — at Talladega? That was more electric than the car itself.

Where would we be without clean water? Where would clean water be without Sydney Watwood? Probably not flowing through the mountainside of Paramos Grande, Guatemala, we know that. The chemical engineering sophomore recently sat down with the #GINNing Gang to detail how Auburn's chapter of Engineers Without Borders is facilitating the philanthropic ambitions she's had since sixth grade.
