by Paul Alongi August 6, 2026 Engineers are crucial to the electric grid, but it worked so well for so long that it became a victim of its own success– many engineering students started to see it as boring and looked elsewhere for careers they perceived as more exciting. All that is starting to change, […]

by Paul Alongi August 5, 2026 The electric grid is not the kind of place you want to run risky experiments. If something goes wrong, the consequences could spread fast, with darkened homes, shuttered schools and internet outages, just to start. That’s why Clemson University’s grid emulator is so important. The Duke Energy eGRID gives utilities, manufacturers […]

by Paul Alongi August 4, 2026 It is hard to overstate the stakes in Clemson University’s work on one of the globe’s greatest engineering marvels, an invention so fundamental to 21st century life that most people notice it only when it fails– and then it’s impossible to ignore. The electric grid cools homes, charges phones, […]

by Scott Miller July 14, 2026 The National Science Foundation (NSF) today announced Clemson University as a key player in the effort to modernize the nation’s electric grid. Clemson was named a founding partner in the NSF Grid Modernization Engine in the Carolinas (Carolinas Grid Engine), one of the agency’s newest Regional Innovation Engines (NSF Engines). […]

The event connected undergraduate and graduate students, faculty researchers and industry partners through networking, poster sessions and collaborative discussions on the future of computing at […]

August 27, 2025 – Jon Calhoun, Associate Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering, and recent CU Computer Engineering master’s graduate Emily Lattanzio have won the Outstanding Paper Award from the IEEE High Performance Extreme Computing (HPEC) conference for their paper, “Performance Analysis of Inline Compression in pySDC,” Emily Lattanzio (CU), Sansriti Ranjan (Siemens EDA), Robert […]

Paul Alongi May 19, 2025 John Ballato of Clemson University is one of the globe’s most respected and influential optical-fiber researchers, but go back a little over four decades, and he was a boy crawling onto his father’s lap to watch him write equations and draw circuits in the office of their New Jersey home. What […]

Congratulations to Ph.D. student Iwinosa Aideyan on being selected for the National Science Foundation’s (NSF) Trusted Cyberinfrastructure (CI) Open Science Cybersecurity Student Program earlier this fall! Out of more than 200 applicants nationwide, Iwinosa was chosen as one of only 18 students to participate in this highly competitive program. Iwinosa is currently completing her Ph.D. in […]
