Dayton Engineer

The University of Dayton School of Engineering is finding new ways to strengthen its courses that are essential in preparing students for their future careers. A team of engineering staff members decided to revive past conversations of revisioning the seminar courses to provide a better value for students. 

Henry Jacques, a recent May 2024 mechanical engineering graduate and now master’s student, was chosen for the competitive Ohio Space Grant Consortium (OSGC) fellowship program. The program, which funds his graduate studies, is a partnership between OSGC and NASA.

Dr. Deogratias Eustace, professor and director of graduate studies in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering and Engineering Mechanics, will assume the role of department chair on July 1.

In the halls of the University of Dayton, where innovation thrives, Tarek Taha and Chris Yakopcic are creating technological marvels. Their journey — from theoretical musings to tangible patents — has reshaped their careers.

The prolific path: 32 patents and counting

Chemical engineering student Caleb Herbon recently visited Ecuador through the Ethos Center and shares of his life-changing experience.
