EECS professor and MTL core faculty member Dana Weinstein is the recipient of an Intel Early Career Faculty Honor from the Intel Corporation. The announcement was made official this week. -
This fall, the faculty and students in the Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) Department at MIT are coming together for a new program that has created a buzz since its announcement last spring. The Advanced Undergraduate Research Program — now officially called the SuperUROP — for EECS department juniors and seniors has already enticed over 200 students with more than 100 exciting research projects proposed by the department's faculty.

Molybdenum-Disulfide (MoS2), like Graphene, is a one-molecule-thick material. But, MIT researchers including EECS Professors Tomas Palacios and Jing Kong have been able to produce complex electronic circuits from MoS2, a material that could have many more applications than graphene. This work is now reported in the journal Nano Letters. -
Anantha P. Chandrakasan, EECS Department Head and the Joseph F. and Nancy P. Keithley Professor of Electrical Engineering at MIT has been selected as the winner of the 2013 IEEE Donald O. Pederson Award in Solid-State Circuits. The citation for the award reads "For pioneering techniques in low-power digital and analog CMOS design." -
Qing Hu, professor of electrical engineering and principal investigator in the Research Laboratory of Electronics (RLE), has been awarded the IEEE Photonics Society's 2012 William Streifer Scientific Achievement Award. Qing is cited "for pioneering contribution in the development of high-temperature, high-power, and broadly tunable THz QCLs, and applications in imaging and sensing.” -
Research update: Chips with self-assembling rectangles - New technique allows production of complex microchip structures in one self-assembling stepMTL, RLE, IV-Physics, Nanotech -
Mildred Spiewak Dresselhaus, a professor of physics and engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, walks with a very large carbon footprint, and in her case it’s a good thing. For more than half a century, Dr. Dresselhaus has studied the fundamental properties of carbon.MTL, RLE, IV-Physics, Energy -
James Fujimoto has been appointed as the Elihu Thomson Professor of Electrical Engineering for a five-year term from July 1, 2012 to June 30, 2017. -

EECS associate professor of electrical engineering Karl Berggren has teamed with MIT Materials Science and Engineering Prof. Caroline Ross to create 3D micro structures that have potential for multiple applications.MTL, RLE, IV-Physics, Nanotech -
"L. Rafael Reif, a distinguished electrical engineer whose seven-year tenure as MIT’s provost has helped MIT maintain its appetite for bold action as well as its firm financial footing, has been selected as the 17th president of the Institute. Reif, 61, was elected to the post this morning by a vote of the MIT Corporation." Read more of the MIT News Office, May 16, 2012 announcement. -
Institute Professor Emerita Mildred S. Dresselhaus, working with materials science graduate student Shuang Tang has discovered that bismuth-antimony not only shares the properties that have made graphene the latest wonder material, but which could offer additional and complementary functionality under different conditions.MTL, RLE, IV-Physics, Energy -
Jesús del Alamo, Donner Professor, MacVicar Faculty Fellow and Professor of Electrical Engineering in the EECS Department at MIT has been recognized by Intel with the 2012 Intel Outstanding Researcher Award in Emerging Research Devices for his "Feasibility Study of InGaAs-based Quantum-Well Field-Effect Transistors for Ultra High Speed, Low Power Logic Applications." -
