Basu Lab attends national conference
Saikat Basu, assistant professor in South Dakota State University's Jerome J. Lohr College of Engineering, traveled to the 76th annual American Physical Society Division of Fluid Dynamics meeting in Washington, D.C., this past November. A group of graduate assistants who conduct research in his lab — the Basu Lab — accompanied him on the trip.
Jackrabbit in the Spotlight / Tjaden Wright
Tjaden Wright wasn’t shooting for the moon before he signed up for his senior design project, but, figuratively, that might be where he is heading. Wright, who is to graduate in May with a degree in electrical engineering and a minor in computer engineering, excelled in his first three years at ³ÉÈËÊÓƵ, building a 4.0 GPA, spending a summer in the Research Experience for Undergraduates program and interning as a test engineer with Sencore in summer 2023.

³ÉÈËÊÓƵ advances in NASA contest as one of six finalists
NASA has narrowed the field to six in its lunar soil excavating contest, and a team of students from South Dakota State University is among the group left in the hunt for a $1 million top prize. Conceived in 2020, the Break the Ice Lunar Challenge tasked innovators with creating robotic systems that can navigate the rugged terrain of the Lunar South Pole, dig up its icy soil and transport it to another location, where, in theory, water could be extracted from the soil.
³ÉÈËÊÓƵ electrical engineering students set standard for academic awards
The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) has announced the 2023-24 recipients of the Power and Energy Society Scholarships. For the second year in a row, ³ÉÈËÊÓƵ dominated. The nine current selections are one better than the mark the program set last year. The list includes four repeat winners and five newcomers.
³ÉÈËÊÓƵ team set to lead NIH AIM-AHEAD project
South Dakota State University has been selected to lead a research project that will analyze the racial and geographic disparities in mortality with end-stage renal (kidney) disease with a focus on Native American and Hispanic populations in South Dakota.
