Just putting it out there, I think I might have the best dog at @UTAustin. He never needs a doggie bag!
We're celebrating #TakeYourDogToWorkDay a little differently on the Forty Acres 🤘🦮 Adventure awaits with Dean @rtbonnecaze and our four-legged robot dog, who's just excited to be here! Anyone else brought or planning to bring their dog to work today?

UPDATE: That's one small step for Longhorns, one giant leap for engineers all over the world 🌍 After eight days of travel, Texas Engineers successfully helped @Int_Machines land on the moon. This is the first U.S.-based lunar landing in more than 50 years to succeed. Horns up!

One of our driving strategic goals is to create a vibrant future for Texas and beyond, and three-way partnerships between academia, government and industry have led to our success. Now, a new partnership with Samsung will further strengthen our ability to train the semiconductor workforce, bolstering the supply chain and our national security. With state and federal support, we will position the U.S. to compete globally and Texas to lead nationally: utex.as/45QdqUA #WhatStartsHere

We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of J. Tinsley Oden, founder and first director of the @OdenInstitute. He was a pioneer in computational mechanics and a visionary academic leader. He worked tirelessly to make UT Austin the destination for all things computing.
We mourn the loss of J. Tinsley Oden, our founding director of the @OdenInstitute 50 yrs ago. Widely known as the father of computational mechanics, Oden devoted his life to advancing interdisciplinary research & education in computing. @UTAustin oden.utexas.edu/news-and-eve…
