Season 1: Data science and engineering
In "Engineering Out Loud" season one we explore how researchers at the College of Engineering are using data science to make practical impacts on our lives and the world around us, from converting bird songs to spectograms for more accurate tracking of bird populations, to keeping us safe from threats by pinpointing radiation sources in real time using simulation codes.
