Alex Koen presents at the American Physical Society’s Plasma Physics Conference
Alex Koen at the American Physical Society’s Plasma Physics Conference, October 31 – November 2, 2023 in Denver, Colorado. Abstract: While commercially-available computer-aid design (CAD) tools excel in modeling most traditional designs, they fall short when developing complex, computationally-seeded stellarator geometry. At Thea Energy, the magnetic winding surface is tiled using an array of planar […]
Engineering Physics student unveils superconductivity in twisted graphene, now published in Nature Materials
Almost a year and a half ago, Ray Su, pictured above, began a Co-op term with UBC physics professor Josh Folk. Ray Su: “Initially, my role involved learning the methods of nanoscale and cryogenic sample preparation from members of the group – from using the “scotch-tape” method to isolate two-dimensional crystals, assembling crystal layers to […]
Engineering Physics students build their own “Mario Karts” for the annual robot competition
Karts must complete as many laps of the track as possible in 2 minutes. Taking shortcuts and flying will save some time. Dropping “bananas” and bombs to slow down the competition is allowed.

4 Engineering Physics alumni donate $1M to Engineering Physics Project Lab
In 2018 Program alumnus Scott Phillips set an ambitious goal to raise $2M in support of the Engineering Physics Project Lab. Phillips got the ball rolling with a contribution of $250K. Matching contributions were made by tech. entrepreneurs Andrew Booth, Carl Hansen, and James Taylor. 5 years later, that $2M goal is within reach, with […]
