We work to educate future mechanical engineers to find solutions to problems in our world, across all industries.
关于我们
If you’re passionate about finding new sources of energy, solving environmental problems, or even enhancing health care through creating better medical devices, mechanical engineering might be your ideal career path. Mechanical engineering is one of the broadest engineering disciplines, providing the skills and knowledge that will allow you to use your creativity to solve the major challenges facing the human race. Solving these challenges often requires interdisciplinary teams. On these teams, mechanical engineers often become system integrators, working not only on one component of the system, but also making sure all parts of it work together to achieve the desired result. All industries require mechanical engineers, be it automotive, aerospace, energy or pharmaceutical.

Congratulations to Dr. Jeremi London being promoted to Associate Professor with Tenure in Mechanical Engineering. Bio: Dr. Jeremi London is the Associate Provost for Academic Opportunity and Belonging and Associate Professor Mechanical Engineering at Vanderbilt University. London’s commitment to bridging the gap between research and practice in engineering education is the focus of her scholarship. Her scholarly interests have been supported by over $11M and resulted in over 100 peer-reviewed articles, best paper awards, and keynote addresses. London’s NSF CAREER award entitled “Disrupting the Status Quo Regarding Who Gets to be an Engineer”, blends her interests in studying paths to transformative impact in the context of broadening participation of underrepresented minorities in engineering. Moreover, London’s scholarly approach to teaching courses like mixed methods designs, statistics, and use-inspired design has also led to meaningful student outcomes and receipt of the?2017 Poly Faculty Teaching Excellence Award, the 2021 Virginia Tech Presidential Principles of Community Award, and the 2021 Dean’s Award for Excellence for Outstanding New Assistant Professors. London holds B.S. and M.S. degrees in Industrial Engineering, and Ph.D. in Engineering Education, all from Purdue University; as well as an MBA from University of Maryland Global Campus.

Recent Paper from Dr. Xiaoguang Dong's Lab : Our journal paper titled "Wirelessly Actuated Microfluidic Pump and Valve for Controlled Liquid Delivery in Dental Implants" is now published in Advanced Healthcare Materials (Impact factor: 10.0)! Great collaboration with Texas A&M, UTexas Health, Houston!? Impact: Minimally invasive and precise control of liquid release in dental implants is crucial for therapeutic functions but remains challenging due to the lack of miniaturized pumps and valves. Here we report miniature wireless pumps and valves for on-demand control of liquid delivery in dental implants, promising for delivering antibiotics to prevent biofilm and infusing stem cells for osseointegration in periodontal diseases! Paper: https://lnkd.in/dDGuG-sP Team: Yilan Xu (co-first), Honglu Lin (co-first), Boyang Xiao, Hutomo Tanoto, Joel Berinstein, Alend Khoshnaw, Dr. Simon Young, Dr. Yuxiao Zhou*, Dr. Xiaoguang Dong*.

Way to go, Jem!
My time at Vanderbilt was largely defined by the work I did with the Formula SAE team. This was the opportunity that I needed to apply the knowledge I was learning in class to a complex mechanical system. Through my role as Engineering Lead, I learned and applied everything from manual and CNC machining to suspension design to finite element modeling and failure mode analysis. This was all grounded in the thrilling fact that I was building a race car, which I then got to race! This project culminated for me with the 2024 Michigan FSAE competition this past May. We were able to make it through all of the stages of the competition despite some scary last minute modifications and component failures, and driving in these events was one of the most fun times of my life. In the end, we were able to secure a 3rd place in the efficiency category. To see more about this project, check out my website: https://lnkd.in/eWWuiQwu
