MANHATTAN — Dr. Min Kao, of Garmin International Inc., has made a $1 million gift to create four labs in the Phase IV building addition at the Kansas State University College of Engineering.
This latest gift is above and beyond the more than $1 million dollars in contributions that Dr. Kao has previously given in support of the College of Engineering through the sponsorship of electrical engineering and computer science scholarships, as well as improvements to the engineering facilities on campus.
If you had to dream up a design experience for students – what would it look like? What should senior engineering students know? What should they be able to do?
Over the past three years the ECE faculty has wrestled with those questions. They want a design experience that will equip students to enter their professional or academic careers. It should help students take the next step by modeling a design experience.
Ms. Chang Liu was selected to present a poster titled “Aver
age Achievable Throughput in D2D underlay cellular networks” based on her joint work with her adviser Dr. Bala Natarajan at the Simons conference on Networks and Stochastic Geometry, May 18-21, 2015, hosted by the Mathematics Department and WNCG, University of Texas Austin. She also received a $1200 travel award from the University of Texas to participate in this conference.
