Duke Engineering is launching a new Master of Engineering in Robotics & Autonomy program that joins signature aspects of our undergraduate and graduate curriculum. Come see where we're heading off to!

Dear Colleagues,

I'm excited to share with you my first newsletter as Chair of Duke MEMS, having started my appointment in the position at the beginning of this year. I wanted to take this opportunity to share with you some of the exciting leaps our department is taking in the realm of robotics. With an influx of talented rising stars and strong interdisciplinary relationships with top medical, computer science, and AI researchers, we're quickly creating what is sure to be a prolific nexus in this exciting and fast-moving field. Take a look for yourself!
