Dr Paraic Ryan and Claudia Cashman co-hosted the annual TY Engineering Your Future Programme at UCC this May, in collaboration with Engineers Ireland's STEPS initiative. Over three days, 30 students from 24 schools across Munster took part in a packed programme of hands-on activities — from bridge building and breaking to circuit design, wave tank testing, and liquid nitrogen ice cream making. A huge thanks to Kate Cannon at Engineers Ireland and to Alexander Jager, Francis Judge, and Vivek Verma and Paraic Ryan for running such engaging sessions, with photography by Ralph O'Flaherty and video creation by Quinton Kelly.

Congratulations to Professor Emanuel Popovici, Electrical and Electronic Engineering who was recently awarded the Qualcomm Certificate of Recognition for his exceptional educational project demonstrated at the ¸£Àû1000ÔÚÏß Platform Symposium in April.  The project was Project Lucy: Integrating AI in Assistive Technologies. 

Congratulations to Professor Jerry Murphy, School of Engineering & Architecture who was ranked 4th in Ireland in the 2026 rankings of Best Engineering and Technology Scientists in Ireland.  Prof Murphy’s research was highlighted under the following themes: Anaerobic Digestion and Biogas Production Hybrid Renewable Energy Systems Microbial Fuel Cells and Bioremediation Biofuel Production and Bioconversion Algal Biology and Biofuel Production Water-Energy-Food Nexus Studies Energy and Environment Impacts   See: https://research.com/u/jerry-d-murphy
