NASA has selected Wentworth Institute of Technology student Hamza Ouriour as one of 40 nationwide undergraduates to take part in the first year of its Europa ICONS (Inspiring Clipper: Opportunities for Next-generation Scientists) internship program, supporting the agency’s Europa Clipper mission.
Europa ICONS matches students with mentors from the mission’s science team for a 10-week program to conduct original scientific research on topics related to the mission to Jupiter’s moon Europa.
A team from Wentworth Institute of Technology recently placed third in the MassRobotics Annual University Form & Function Challenge, competing against universities from around the world.
The IEEE-HKN Board of Governors has conferred upon the Mu Mu Chapter of Wentworth Institute of Technology the 2022-2023 IEEE-HKN Outstanding Chapter Award. This prestigious honor is presented to chapters in recognition of excellence in their administration and programs.
Wentworth is one of only 21 chapters of 273 to be recognized for their work during the 2022-2023 academic year.
A team from the Mechanical Engineering Department at Wentworth Institute of Technology won an honorable mention during the recent Transportation Research Board’s Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) design competition.
The year is 2000. You’re working on a report (due the next day) and you have one fact left to check. You go to your computer, open your browser…and wait. While you wait, you’re serenaded by the shriek of the computer as it connects to the Internet.
For those lucky enough to grow up in the age of wi-fi and smartphones, this was called “dial-up,” and it was not something that most of us found inspiring.
Wentworth Institute of Technology student Paul Miller is working on an electric motor and battery that has the potential to be a game changer for anyone who rides a scooter, skateboard, or bike.
Miller's journey began two years ago when he built an electric bike as a side project.
Five centimeters is the size of a AA battery, two quarters, and a single matchstick.
It’s also the length and width of a satellite being built at Wentworth Institute of Technology.
Wentworth Institute of Technology students gathered inside and outside of Tansey Gym to show off their monthslong projects including robotics, vehicles, and cooking apparatuses.
This event features the final work of junior and senior project teams across all engineering disciplines.

The Boston Globe spoke with Wentworth Institute of Technology Professor Jim Lambrechts about the MBTA, a transit system that he believes cannot simply be remedied, but rather should be widely expanded.
Students in Wentworth's School of Engineering worked with Teradyne, an automatic test equipment designer and manufacturer, to help address an issue the company was having with downtime on a test procedure.
Students and faculty worked with Teradyne for eight months to identify the problem, create a proposal within the first month, and then go through the design process as part of their Capstone Design Projects.
A multi-disciplinary student team comprised of members from Wentworth Institute of Technology, Auburn University and Arizona State University took second place in the inaugural 2020 Datathon Competition.
Sponsored by the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) Computing Division, the competition took place alongside the annual 2020 Construction Research Congress (CRC 2020) Conference, which emanated from in Tempe, Arizona earlier this spring.
Jakub Bzura looks at a Tesla on the road a little differently than most.
“My instinct is to check the panel gaps and look for serial numbers to see if I remember any of them,” he says.
Bzura, a senior Mechanical Engineering student, conducted his first co-op with Tesla in Fremont, California this past spring and he is currently on his second co-op at the Tesla in Reno, Nevada.
As a quality engineer in Fremont, Bzura was asked to find, analyze, and reduce the deviations of different parts of a car that might significantly influence the assembly.
The Center for Engineering, Innovation and Sciences (CEIS) played host May 30 to an event that looked at the many ways Wentworth students and partners are using civil engineering to positively impact the world.
