When Professor Kendall Farnham agreed to teach in the online Master of Engineering in Computer Engineering at Dartmouth, she knew it wouldn’t be easy. “How do we facilitate learning with desktop hardware when I can’t look over your shoulder and tell you that you plugged something in backwards and that’s why it’s smoking?” she laughs.…

When New Jersey native Matthew Daiter enrolled in the University of Colorado Boulder’s online MS in Electrical Engineering program, he already had nearly a decade of real-world experience behind him. No undergraduate degree. No traditional academic trajectory. Just a “funky educational path,” a can-do attitude, and a career spent building and breaking boundaries in hardware…

When you picture a machine learning class, you might imagine a sea of code, dense math, and a professor droning on in a dark lecture hall. But for Professor Peter Chin, the experience is anything but that. It’s personal, dynamic, and rooted in a belief that learning should be rigorous and human. As one of…

Engineering is a vast discipline with many streams you can follow. The engineering field is where critical thinkers and problem-solvers unite to explore how things work and find practical solutions to science’s discoveries. This month, we’re shining our Alison Publisher Spotlight on Graham Van Brunt. He spoke to us about his engineering experience and how…

When Turkish native Nejla Gul-Saglam began her journey in computer programming at Sakarya University back in 2007, she didn’t yet know how many times her dreams would evolve—and be tested. Today, as a full-time employee, mother, and proud 2025 graduate of the Master of Engineering in Engineering Management from CU Boulder, Nejla’s story is one…

John Murphy and Felix Hong have traversed unique yet parallel journeys, from serving their country to pursuing advanced degrees through Dartmouth’s online Master of Engineering in Computer Engineering (MEng). Both veterans are applying the discipline and skills they honed in the military to tackle intellectually enriching challenges in hardware and software engineering. Here’s a glimpse…
