Research Showcase 2024
Thursday, March 7, 2024
5 – 7 p.m. (Pacific Standard Time) | HUB North Ballroom
Our eighth annual UW ECE Research Showcase featured cutting-edge research projects from our very own electrical and computer engineering graduate students. Visitors had a chance to review posters, speak with the students and their advisers and learn more about the exciting projects underway across the various labs at UW ECE. The Research Showcase was also a perfect opportunity for visiting prospective students to learn more about the Department’s research.
Research Showcase is UW ECE’s premier event for students to showcase the exciting research projects they are working on in labs and groups across all areas of electrical and computer engineering. This event allows our students to present top research in a variety of areas with societal impact. The topics covered include artificial intelligence, medical device technologies, power and energy, transportation, the environment, wireless communications and many more.
