Research @ UVA Engineering
Engineering for a Sustainable FutureEngineering a better future will require the best work of researchers collaborating along the spectrum from the tiniest building blocks of materials through the complex workings of entire societal systems. We work at the micro- and nano-scale in fields like heat transfer, catalysis and 2-D materials to identify fundamental properties of matter. Our goal is not simply to conduct research, but to pursue research with positive global impact.

Devin K. Harris
Professor of Civil Engineering Chair of the Department of Civil and Environmental EngineeringProfessor Harris is chair of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Virginia. His research and teaching interests focus on large scale infrastructure systems with a primary focus on condition monitoring and system performance.
Daniel G. Graham
David L. Green

Our group focuses on the synthesis of well-defined nanoparticles, their dispersion into polymer solutions and melts, and their suspension rheology. With our fundamental studies, we seek to optimize processing to achieve a desirable microstructure in industrial suspensions, and to set a foundation for developing constitutive rheological models.
James F. Groves

James Groves is a leading university educator in the field of sustainable development. In the classroom he educates his students about sustainable energy systems; his overarching goal is to help "people and planet." His primary teaching focus in this arena is his popular Introduction to Sustainable Energy Systems course.
Sergio Guillen Grillo, Ph.D.

Sergio Guillén is a scholar and practitioner in public policy, conflict resolution, engineering ethics, and democratic deliberation. He is an Assistant Professor of Engineering and Society. He also Co-directs the Online Ethics Center (OEC) and Directs the J-Term Costa Rica Study Abroad Program "Social Issues in Renewable Energy Governance."
