The most comprehensive collection of biomedical and scientific visual aids ever produced has a new home: The University of Texas at Austin. Thanks to the generosity of its creator — medical animation pioneer Bruce Blausen — the Blausen Medical Library’s vast archive of medical images has been made freely available through UT’s Cockrell School of Engineering to assist in the research, teaching and discovery of every student and faculty member on campus.
Alan Bean was an astronaut who became the fourth human to walk on the moon. He was an artist who painted his experiences and texturized his work with pieces from his past. He was a Texas Engineering alumnus who was so proud of his education, he carried his class ring with him into space.
Bean died on May 26 in Houston, at the age of 86. He was the last surviving member of the Apollo 12 mission.
More than a decade in the making, the highly anticipated, 430,000-square-foot Engineering Education and Research Center (EERC) has officially opened at The University of Texas at Austin. The EERC is the university’s new hub for engineering education, research and innovation and serves as a center for multidisciplinary collaboration within the Cockrell School of Engineering. It is also the new home for the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, the school’s largest academic department.
