A new study from Ģ������Ƶ's Ness School of Management and Economics found that about a quarter of surveyed farmers in Eastern South Dakota have adopted drone technology, despite high upfront costs.

A $10,000 supplemental grant award to the South Dakota Perinatal Quality Collaborative is creating opportunities to strengthen how maternal care is delivered across South Dakota.

June 28 and 29, 2026 — the days I will never forget. I got a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN-69), affectionately known as "Mighty IKE,” a living engineering marvel and a remarkable testament to American engineering innovation and ingenuity.

Jason Sternhagen, a 16-year veteran of the McComish Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, begins his 17th year as the first appointee to the Metzger Educator in Power System Engineering. Sternhagen, who had been a lecturer and research associate III in the electrical engineering department, carries the new title of Metzger Endowed Professor of Practice.

From aerospace to concrete, 25 clubs associated with the Jerome J. Lohr College of Engineering will be showcasing their work during the college’s inaugural Student Success Showcase Sept. 10 in the parking south of the Campanile. The event will be held in conjunction with the One Day for State fundraiser and celebration organized by the SDSU Alumni & Foundation.

While many engineering students spend their early college years building foundational skills, Jacob York is already conducting research, leading his own project and helping shape the campus engineering community through his leadership. As an incoming junior, his eagerness to pursue opportunities beyond the classroom has set him apart early in his college career.

What if AI learned it wrong? Training artificial intelligence models means taking in massive data sets to establish the model’s parameters. But the challenge with opening the information gate so wide is that undesirable, incorrect or copyright-protected information may flow through the pipeline as well. Jun Huang, an assistant professor in electrical engineering and computer science at Ģ������Ƶ, is working with a doctoral student to refine the relatively new field of machine unlearning.

Aidan Ferens’ early years may have been spent in Washington, D.C., but the roots of this Ģ������Ƶ incoming sophomore are deeply entrenched in the Dakota prairie. Ferens’ parents moved to the Highmore ranch where his mother grew up when Ferens was 6 years old. He was one of 13 students in the Highmore High School Class of 2025. Four of them continued their education at SDSU. One other also are enrolled in the Jerome J. Lohr College of Engineering, but Ferens is the only one to major in healthcare systems engineering, a program which the college started one year ago. Like the move to the Haiwick ranch 4 miles east and 2 miles south of Highmore, the transition to college and a brand-new major has been a smooth one.

The Jerome J. Lohr College of Engineering hosted three outreach camps for high school students this summer with the 55 students coming from as far away as Dubai (their parents are SDSU graduates who were here during camp week). The breakdown, in order of occurrence, shows 12 for Youth Engineering Camp, 26 for Precision Ag Camp and 17 for Data Science Camp. A short summary of each camp follows.

Two Ģ������Ƶ researchers are available to explain the science behind the air quality forecasts millions of Americans are checking right now.
