Engineering and long snapping — that's what Auburn does. At least that's the takeaway from our interview with mechanical engineering GTA Clarke Smith, the second long snapping Auburn Tiger to tackle the rigors of the Samuel Ginn College of Engineering we've interviewed in a year. Hut, hut. 

He finally said yes. Auburn University President Christopher B. Roberts, ladies and gentlemen... 

If you've detected some new energy emanating from the Shelby Center basement these days, there's a reason. Yep, the acclaimed LEGO lab is now straight up Ballard powered. 

Learn how Auburn swimming sensation Meghan Lee slices through the waters of civil and environmental engineering on the latest episode of the award-winning #GINNing Podcast. 

Listen, if you want to be a patent attorney, stop screwing around and declare chemical engineering already. Sheesh. 

Did the movie "Armageddon" seriously inspire the incredible career of Toshi Hirabayashi, an aerospace engineer so apprised on the current status of the asteroid-monitoring apparatus that one of those rocky minor planets of the inner solar system actually bears his name? Find out on the latest episode of the award-winning #GINNing Podcast.

Assistant civil and environmental engineering professor Mike Perez,  head honcho at the Samuel Ginn College of Engineering's Construction Stormwater Facility, doesn't have too much time for politics. But he's always interested in a good... runoff. P.S. Yes, we know. It's "sedentary." It's like a joke. 

If recruiting Gen Z into manufacturing jobs is like a game of chess, then let's just say this: Don't underestimate the Bishop. 

Microenvironmental regulation of tumor progression and metastasis is an important area of focus in current cancer research.But don't take our word for it — talk to Elizabeth Lipke, the Mary and John H. Sanders Associate Professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering, who's focusing on it more than anyone in the world.

The only thing two-dimensional about the latest guest on the award-winning #GINNing Podcast are the materials she modifies with antibodies in order to instantly detect the Covid-19 virus spike protein — electronically. So, if you've been starvin' for Parvin, then grab a heaping helping of this electrical engineering grad student's wonderful world of biosensors and microscopic masterpieces.  

Listen to chemical engineering junior Peter Abraham, Auburn's latest Barry M. Goldwater Scholar, discuss life, love and Lipke on the latest episode of the award-winning #GINNing Podcast.

Layla Araiinejad, the essay-writin', intellectual property pondering', two-time Tim Cook Scholarin' industrial and systems engineering senior who's got MIT on their knees, begging for her — darling, please. 

When it comes to guarding the coast, an Auburn Engineer like Andrew Kauffman is who you'll want the most. 

The National Center for Additive Manufacturing Excellence recently got a little more excellent, thanks to land of opportunity-loving Elham Mirkoohi. So get your ears on and prepare to be schooled in AI and machine learning's new role in process-structure-property relationships and convergence manufacturing and all sorts of other words. You down with PSP? Oh boy is she...

Ready for the best day of your life? Well, former Auburn basketbrawler and 1986 Auburn industrial engineering graduate Gary Godfrey certainly is. Diagnosed with ALS in 2019, the only man Charles Barkley ever feared has spent the past three years preaching positivity with a rare perspective on living life to the fullest. Which is what he's doing every day with the help of his better half, and fellow 1986 Auburn industrial engineering alum, Carol. The latest example? Getting back on a bike in time for the annual Bo Bikes Bama charity event courtesy an Auburn Engineering senior design team that raced to build a custom ride for an Auburn Man who won't be denied.

Brad Christopher, ’91 and ’93 civil engineering, president of LBYD Engineers, may be the newest chair of the Auburn Alumni Engineering Council. But he's always been our chairman of... The Board. 

Listen as we lob softball questions to freshman mechanical engineering super slugger Bri Ellis on the latest episode of the award-winning #GINNing Podcast. 

iRacing.... is it blinking your eyes as fast as you can? A staring contest? Or virtually revving your engine like the big boys for an endurance test that apparently can literally break your wrists. You're not going to have to hold on for one more day to find out what Austin Wilson and Austin Phillips have to say about it. 

 Auburn chemical engineering doctoral candidate Mohammadjafar Hashemi's  tissue engineering research is helping to further medicine’s understanding of diabetes' often deadly impact on human heart function. As Wilford Brimley would say, it's the right thing to do. 

From catwalks to spacewalks. From wearing the crown to touching down. From Miss Hoover to Miss—ion Control, PoSSUM-loving Auburn ISE junior Jordan Carraway is ready to launch.
