Graduate students in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering know how to represent! 

A total of 18 ECE grad students presented their research at the spring Graduate Student Showcase, the largest showing from any one program. 

Five of the participating ECE students received awards for their research posters.
  • Rahul Reddy Kancharla took home the CAES Energy Efficiency Research Institute Award in Sustainable Energy, including a $250 cash prize. His research for the graduate conference focused on X-ray imaging for Biomass Analysis.
  • Shah Mohammad Rahmot Ullah was recognized for his research poster, Materials Characterization of Dissolved Chalcogenide Spin Coated Thin Films, taking home a cash prize of $200.
  • Muhammad Kamran Latif earned a College of Engineering award for his research poster submission, earning $250 in the process.  Latif's project explores Conservation by Voltage Reduction Using a Single-Phase Residential Static VAR Compensator
  • Md Faisal Kabir also earned a College of Engineering award (and cash!) for his research poster Ge2Se3/Ge2Se3-M (M = Sn, Al, Ti, W, Cr, Pb, Cu, C) - Based Optically - Gated Transistor: M Influence on Optical and Electrical Properties
  • Nishatul Majid was recognized for his research poster, taking home a cash prize of $200. Majid's research focused on Offline Bangla Script Handwriting Recognition Unit with Sequential Detection of Characters/ Diacritics.

ECE Seminar October 7: Printed Electronics for Air Force Applications

By Jenn Ambrose
 The Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at Boise State University invites you to attend a free public seminar hosted on Zoom. This week's seminar features  Dr. Emily Heckman, a Senior Research Engineer at Air Force Research Laboratory. October 7 @ 10:30 am  https://boisestate.zoom.us/j/92994002201 ABSTRACT |    This talk will provide an overview of the field of printed electronics and ongoing research efforts in this area at the Air Force Research Laboratory Sensors Directorate. Printed electronics is a subset of additive manufacturing that uses technologies such as inkjet and aerosol jet printing and various other direct-write tools to additively print electronic devices on flexible, conformal and traditional substrate platforms. The AFRL Sensors Directorate is currently exploring this technology for application areas such as RF circuits and antennas, optoelectronic devices, sensors, and rapid prototyping. Challenges such as post-processing, repeat...

ECE Seminar Sept 16: Optical Fibers Sensors

By Jenn Ambrose
The Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at Boise State University invites you to attend a free public seminar hosted on Zoom.  This week's seminar features ECE PhD Candidate Sohel Rana. September 16 @ 10:30 am  https://boisestate.zoom.us/j/92994002201 ABSTRACT |  As traditional electronic systems are beginning to hit a wall in terms of interconnect speed and performance, it is believed that optics presents a blue sky with immense potential for technology innovations and widespread adoption in the areas of communication, security, energy, sensing, computing, etc in the not-too-distant future. Optical fiber systems have found a plethora of promising and potential applications in significant fields due to their low loss and wide bandwidth. Following these, we are developing fiber optic sensors that may survive in harsh environments such as high radiation field and high temperature and provide useful information regarding temperature, pressure, and strain.
