College of Engineering - Oregon State University

We're celebrating 1,965 college of engineering graduates tomorrow! 🎓 🎉

Congrats on all the hard work. We wish you the best in your next engineering pursuits!

87.66mph 💨

The fastest motorcycle in its class to ever compete at El Mirage was built by five engineering students from for their senior design project.

The team is gearing up to compete at the largest speed racing event of the year at the famous Bonneville Salt Flats in August. !

We were so impressed by all the amazing senior design projects presented at this year's Engineering Expo!

We saw projects facing engineering challenges from robotics to clean water, construction innovation, virtual reality, agriculture and everything in between.

Hats off to all the hard work our students put into these designs.

Congrats to 2024 HC graduate Elle Winn! 🎓🎉 Elle earned an H.B.S. in bioengineering with a minor in business and completed her thesis, “Shift in Marketing from Business-to-Business (B2B) to Business to Consumer (B2C) of Cardiac and Respiratory Monitoring Devices via Smartwatches,” under the mentorship of Dr. Ryann Reynolds, an assistant professor senior of Marketing & Merchandising Management in the College of Business. After graduation, Elle plans on working as a Regulatory Affairs Specialist for Mittal Consulting to aid small medical device companies, hospital and university incubators, and start-ups in earning FDA clearance for their medical devices.

We celebrated the groundbreaking of the Jen-Hsun Huang and Lori Mills Huang Collaborative Innovation Complex yesterday. The center will employ a NVIDIA supercomputer to support faculty in addressing highly complex and challenging computational problems. The OSU supercomputer – powered by the latest NVIDIA CPUs, GPUs and networking – is expected to be among the world’s fastest university and will help foster team-based research in artificial intelligence to advance global solutions using our expertise in robotics, climate science, clean energy and biotechnology and integrated health.

The complex was made possible by two $50 million gifts from the Wayne and Gladys Valley Foundation and OSU alumni couple Jensen Huang, ‘84, ‘09 (Hon. Ph.D.), NVIDIA founder and CEO, and his spouse Lori, ‘85, who is president of their family's foundation. We were delighted to welcome the Huangs to campus for the groundbreaking and to celebrate their transformative gift. Govenor Tina Kotek also gave remarks at the event. We are grateful to the state legislature for supporting the complex with $72 million in capital bonds for the building’s construction.

Jensen told the gathering, “I believe that through this visionary project, we’re creating the conditions by which amazing researchers could do their life’s work here, and make a real impact for the rest of society, for the future of the planet. To tackle the most worthwhile, the most consequential breakthroughs that the world needs.”

As our CEO and President Shawn L. Scoville said, "On behalf of the OSU Foundation, and all the donors who love and support this university, we want to thank you, Lori and Jensen. We are so proud of you – of your success, of your philanthropy, and of your wonderful family. We are grateful that OSU matters in your lives."
