Research @ UVA Engineering
Engineering for a Sustainable FutureEngineering a better future will require the best work of researchers collaborating along the spectrum from the tiniest building blocks of materials through the complex workings of entire societal systems. We work at the micro- and nano-scale in fields like heat transfer, catalysis and 2-D materials to identify fundamental properties of matter. Our goal is not simply to conduct research, but to pursue research with positive global impact.

Julia C. Spencer
Raised in NYC, Spencer's affinity for Charlottesville grew when she moved to study math at UVA in 2014. Her thesis focused on he linearized Navier-Stokes equations. Soon after she graduated, she started teaching at Mary Baldwin College and then moved back to teach math at UVA's Applied Math program. Outside work, she enjoys yoga and puzzles.
Mircea R. Stan
Mircea R. Stan is teaching and doing research in the areas of AI hardware, Processing in Memory, Cyber-Physical Systems, Computational RFID, Low Power, Spintronics, and Nanoelectronics.
Derrick Stone
With love for the art of programming and three decades of industry experience in software engineering, I am interested in helping students understand theory and implementation.
Nathan Swami
Nathan Swami is a Professor of Electrical & Computer Engineering at the University of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA.
Dr. Tang's research program centers on the structure-mechanics relationships of hierarchical biological materials and their clinical and biomedical applications. Many biological tissues, such as our own skeleton, perform a diverse range of functions with remarkable mechanical properties. These exceptional properties arise from the functional
