The École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) is a research institute and university in Lausanne, Switzerland, that specializes in natural sciences and engineering. It is one of the two Swiss Federal Institutes of Technology, and it has three main missions: education, research and technology transfer at the highest international level.
EPFL is widely regarded as a world leading university. The QS World University Rankings ranks EPFL 12th in the world across all fields in their 2017/2018 ranking, whilst Times Higher Education World University Rankings ranks EPFL as the world's 11th best school for Engineering and Technology.
EPFL is located in the French-speaking part of Switzerland; the sister institution in the German-speaking part of Switzerland is the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETH Zurich). Associated with several specialised research institutes, the two universities form the Swiss Federal Institutes of Technology Domain (ETH Domain), which is directly dependent on the Federal Department of Economic Affairs, Education and Research. In connection with research and teaching activities, EPFL operates a nuclear reactor CROCUS, a Tokamak Fusion reactor, a Blue Gene/Q Supercomputer and P3 bio-hazard facilities. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89cole_Polytechnique_F%C3%A9d...

To study engineering in a building such as this is an inspiration.

This photo summarizes some of the current research activities of our lab, connected by the idea of learning from biological systems. On the right, our soft, tendon driven hand on the commercial robot Baxter allows to adapt to various geometries while grasping. Due to its design based on hot glue, the hand is quick and cheap in production and can withstand shocks during operation without being damaged. On the left, our one legged hopping robot ETH Cargo is used for exploring energy efficient locomotion. While being able to carry up to 150kg of payload, this robot consumes only half of the energy per bodyweight of a walking human.
Such a long way down. This was the view from the Hoover Dam looking out to the new bridge.

TYNDALL AIR FORCE BASE, Fla., April 15, 2014. - U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Axel Fiksman, right, 116th Civil Engineering Squadron (CES), Robins Air Force Base (AFB), Ga., Georgia Air National Guard, uses a circular saw to cut an even edge on a portion of a wall frame while Senior Airman Daniel Tift, 143rd CES, Quonset National Guard Base, R.I., and Staff Sgt. Joe Wells, 433rd CES, Lackland AFB, Texas, help to steady the boards during Silver Flag training.
During the weeklong course, Guardsmen from the 116th CES and more than 30 other U.S. Air Force and Air National Guard units trained on building and maintaining bare-base operations at a forward-deployed location. In addition, they honed their combat and survival skills and repaired simulated bomb-damaged runways, set up base facilities and established various critical base operating support capabilities. More than 30 Airmen from the 116th CES attended the exercise that consisted of extensive classroom and hands-on training culminating in an evaluation of learned skills on the last day of class.

A team of engineers at Vanderbilt’s Center for Intelligent Mechatronics led by Michael Goldfarb, H. Fort Flowers Chair in Mechanical Engineering, has developed a powered exoskeleton that enables people with severe spinal cord injuries to stand, walk, sit and climb stairs. Its lightweight, compact size and modular design promise to provide users with an unprecedented degree of independence. The university has several patents pending on the design, and Parker Hannifin Corporation, a global leader in motion and control technologies, has signed an exclusive licensing agreement to develop a commercial version of the device that it plans to introduce in 2014.
