Robotics Education Fund

Robotics Education Fund is sponsored by FAMU-FSU College of Engineering (Florida A&M University-Florida State University). This opportunity supports mission-aligned projects and measurable outcomes.

A unique partnership between a top-rated national public HBCU and a top national public R-1 university. Welcome to the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering The only joint college of engineering in the nation, associated with the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory. The largest and highest-powered magnet lab in the world, the National MagLab hosts more than a thousand visiting scientists a year.

Researchers use the facility for free, advancing understanding of materials and new technology, energy, health, the environment and even the universe. Our students enroll as Rattlers or Seminoles and start their college experience on the home campus. Once prerequisites are complete, they learn, study and research together at our shared engineering building and graduate from their home university.

programs in one of our six engineering departments. We also offer graduate certificate programs for current students, graduates and engineering professionals. Some of the world’s most advanced engineering research centers and a national laboratory are within walking distance of our classrooms.

Our strategic areas are: Engineering Resilience • High-Performance Materials • Sustainable Energy Systems • Integrated Transportation Systems • Engineering Healthcare FSU InSPIRE: The nation’s hub for aerodynamics and advanced manufacturing. The Institute for Strategic Partnerships, Innovation, Research, and Education (FSU InSPIRE) will be a dynamic hub where applied research, development, and testing collide.

It will serve as a catalyst for translating innovative ideas into practical solutions, bridging the gap between theoretical concepts and real-world applications. The joint college is proud to be the academic partner for InSPIRE.

Doctoral Student Cryogenic Research David Sackey, Yai Pioth Yai Deng, and Muhammad Tahir Mehmood Khan Niazi individually presented their work at the biannual 2025 Cryogenic Engineering Conference (CEC) and International Cryogenic Materials Conference (ICMC).

These doctoral students presented their research in areas relevant to electric aircraft propulsion systems and hydrogen power applications, contributing to discussions on cryogenic materials science and thermal management systems. Read About These Doctoral Researchers Maryam Pakdehi was honored with the 2024-2025 Graduate Student Leadership Award from Florida State University (FSU).

Her work focuses on improving flood predictions, which are crucial for community safety during disasters like hurricanes. This research addresses critical environmental challenges through cutting-edge technology.

This unique collaboration between a top Historically Black University and a Research-1 institution makes us a great place to learn cutting-edge engineering skills in a multicultural environment offering a real-world experience that employers value. 13.

6% increase in undergraduate enrollment since 2019 63% increase in graduate enrollment since 2019 45% student multiculturalism, some of the highest proportions of historically smaller groups of any college of engineering nationwide The FAMU-FSU College of Engineering has been widely hailed for taking the initiative to create programs to align academic curriculum with industry needs.

We ensure that students learn what they need to learn through quality teaching and research.
