The Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF), founded and produced by Society for Science, is the world’s largest international high school science competition, providing an annual opportunity for nearly 2,000 students from all over the world to showcase their independent research and compete for approximately $5 million in prizes
In 2019, Regeneron became the title sponsor of ISEF to help reward and celebrate the best and brightest young minds globally and encourage them to pursue careers in STEM as a way to positively impact the world.
Alumni of Regeneron ISEF have gone on to have world-changing careers in science and engineering and earn some of the most esteemed honors, including National Medal of Science recipients, MacArthur Foundation Fellows, National Academy of Sciences and National Academy of Engineering Inductees and a range of entrepreneurs.
Founded by the belief that advances in science are key to solving global challenges, Regeneron ISEF works to support and invest in young scientists who are generating ideas and acting as catalysts for the change needed to improve the well-being of all people and the planet.
Society for Science and Regeneron engage young people as active change agents and support the hard work and cutting-edge discoveries of promising young leaders who are motivated by curiosity and inspired to improve the world with STEM. Regeneron ISEF reinforces this potential and invests in the best and brightest young minds by continuing to nurture all fields of scientific research to foster transformative innovations.
Participants in a recent program at the Jocelyn H. Lee Innovation Lab were given an "Engineer's Challenge": Use a variety of supplies and tools from our community makerspace to generate electricity from the wind. We provided minimum instruction, but our volunteers were on hand to help everyone be successful. Fun + learning = good times in the makerspace!
Cockrell School students Eleanor Seaborne, fashion magazine publisher, Andrew Pish, stand-up comic, and Catherine Bacon, roller derby jammer, offer proof that, while those terms may be accurate, they don’t tell the entire story. Yes, each qualifies as a university honors student and each spends a significant amount of time seriously studying. But they have also allowed their insatiable intellect, natural curiosity and sense of fun to guide them into other, perhaps less serious pursuits.
The Department of Computer Science and Engineering was established in the year 2006 with the objective to provide high quality technical education to students enabling them to excel in the field of engineering. The Department is led by experienced, committed and dynamic faculty who strive to achieve excellence in teaching and mould future computer professionals. The department, known for its emphasis on discipline, strives to equip students with skills necessary to meet challenges of the highly competitive software market.

ERCO 250SH BALL TURRET
The ERCO 250SH was a ball turret design built during World War II by the Engineering and Research Corporation for the United States Navy. It was used as a bow or nose turret for Consolidated PB4Y-1 Liberator and Consolidated PB4Y-2 Privateer patrol bombers. The gunner could use the twin 50 caliber machine guns to protect against frontal aerial attacks or for strafing enemy sea or ground targets.
Like other ball turret designs, the gunner was enclosed in the turret, rotating and elevating with the guns. The turret was hydraulically powered and when installed on the Privateer it could reach an elevation of 85 degrees high to 70 degrees low and rotate 80 degrees to the left and right.
