Answers in the wind
Students from around the world will converge on Monash this month as part of the International Future Energy Challenge.

Fabricating the future
A research collaboration between Monash and the CSIRO is pushing new boundaries in engineering, a trend set to increase with a new multimillion dollar venture at the Clayton campus

Driving green saves fuel and environment
A Monash pilot study has found "eco driving", a technique that emphasises smoother driving behaviour, has the potential to dramatically cut fuel consumption and carbon emissions in heavy vehicles, and that the lessons can be adopted by all motorists.

Noteworthy
Monash researchers are at the forefront of efforts to develop a new generation of solar cells that are lighter, cheaper and able to be embedded in future roofing materials.

At the coal face
Monash engineers have reprised an old rule of physics to develop a new approach to capturing pollution from coal-fired power stations.

Fantastic voyage
When engineering researcher Dr James Friend came to Monash four years ago, he set about delivering less ''bang for the buck''. Considering he previously designed a trigger fuse to set off a thermo-nuclear bomb, that had to be a very good thing.

Celebrating excellence
Around 40 engineering students and five staff were recognised for their outstanding achievements during 2008 at the Engineering Awards Presentation Dinner.

Professor Brian G. Falzon from the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering has been awarded a Future Summit Leadership Award.

The Vice Chancellor's Ancora Imparo Student Leadership Program
Application for positions in the Vice Chancellor’s 2010 Ancora Imparo Student Leadership Program open on the 20th of May. All first year students studying on Victorian Campuses of Monash University are eligible to apply.

Paper-Based Diagnostic and Environmental Sensors
Chemical Engineering PhD student Xu Li was unanimously voted as winner of the prestigious international contest at Appita New Speakers Contest.

Recognition for optical fibre leadership
Professor Arthur Lowery from the Department of Electrical and Computer Systems Engineering has been elected to the grade of IEEE Fellow for his leadership in computer modelling of optical communication systems.

Arts and Engineering get their teeth into dentist training
A visiting PhD student from Iran's Tarbiat Modares University has developed a simulation for training dentists and bone surgeons.

The Physics of Pizza Tossing
Researchers at the MicroNanophysics Research Laboratory at Monash University have developed a model of pizza tossing based on observations of professional chefs tossing dough

2009 NACE International F.N. Speller Award Recipient
Bruce Hinton, an Honorary Professorial Fellow in the Department of Materials Engineering was awarded the 2009 NACE International F.N.Speller Award.

Tackling corrosion in industrial infrastructure
A CIEAM project team are investigating the use of both traditional and innovative sensing methods to provide information on the current and potential future health of industrial infrastructure.

Elite female cyclists battle the elements in futuristic wind tunnel
On the 20th March the Amy Gillett Foundation announced former Olympic rower turned cycling sensation Amber Halliday as its 2009 Cycling Scholarship recipient.

California dreaming
Mechanical engineering student Ne Tan is spending the first semester of this year studying at the University of California, Berkeley as part of the Monash Abroad program.

Scholarship Celebration 2009
Monash Engineering celebrates top new students

Scholarship opens doors in Japan
Final year Bachelor of Commerce/Bachelor of Engineering (Mechanical) student Tim Leach recently returned from a two week, fully paid tour of Japan.

Monash Motorsport finishes 2nd in Australia
In November 2008, Monash Motorsport competed in the 2008 Formula SAE Australasia Competition

Road to success
Weerasinghalage Kaushalya (Kaushi) Perera proves pathways programs are an ideal bridge to university study.

Technology to print solar cells like money
Victorian Minister for Energy and Resources, Peter Batchelor, announced the beginning of trials to print solar cells using technology developed by the CSIRO

Monash researchers awarded funding to strengthen Australia-China science links
Monash researchers collaborating with scientists from Shandong University and Wuhan University of Technology in China have been awarded $250,000.
