Marlan and Rosemary Bourns College of Engineering

Established by a family of UC Riverside alumni, the Ross Family Endowed Term Chair supports innovative teaching and research in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering.

A team of bioengineering undergraduates share how the successes they achieved in redesigning an innovative hearing-loss diagnostic tool were made possible through guidance and mentorship from faculty members and real-world feedback and resources from industry.

The University of California system has awarded UC Riverside a $549,785 grant to expand efforts to diversify its engineering faculty. The award from the UC Office of the President aims to increase faculty diversity in UCR’s Marlan and Rosemary Bourns College of Engineering, or BCOE, by recruiting and mentoring prospective candidates before they formally enter the academic job market.

A team of bioengineering students reveal some of the biggest challenges it faced in transforming a hearing-loss diagnostic tool from a 20-pound device to a redesign weighing less than a pound-and-a-half “that people are excited to use.”
