SYRACUSE, N.Y. — The Syracuse Center of Excellence (SyracuseCoE) in Environmental and Energy Systems has awarded nearly $180,000 for the 2023 SyracuseCoE Faculty Fellow awards.
These nine research and innovation projects are led by faculty members from Syracuse University; SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry (SUNY-ESF); and SUNY Oswego.
The SyracuseCoE Faculty Fellows program recognizes faculty members who demonstrate a “strong commitment” to interdisciplinary research and scholarship in the areas of energy, environmental quality, and sustainable design with additional support available for projects involving New York State–based companies, per the Syracuse University announcement.
All of the funded projects were selected from a diverse range of faculty proposals received through a funding solicitation issued by SyracuseCoE earlier this spring. Since 2015, more than $859,000 has been awarded to support SyracuseCoE Faculty Fellows research and development projects.
“We are thrilled to welcome these outstanding faculty members to the SyracuseCoE community as Faculty Fellows,” Jianshun (Jensen) Zhang, executive director of SyracuseCoE, said in the release. “Their interdisciplinary expertise and, in several cases, work with area entrepreneurs will be invaluable in advancing our mission to support the development of innovative solutions to human health, global energy and environmental challenges.”
Zhang is also a professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering in Syracuse University’s College of Engineering and Computer Science.
