Mechanics for Engineering Innovation

The Engineering Mechanics Institute (EMI) Conference will provide an engaging forum for researchers and practitioners to showcase their recent fundamental and applied contributions to engineering mechanics and its related fields.

Join us at the Engineering Mechanics Institute Conference (EMI 2026) – the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) premier annual mechanics conference. This conference will be hosted by The University of Colorado, Boulder on the University of Colorado, Boulder campus led by Professors Mija Hubler and Yida Zhang. 

Engineering mechanics serves as the foundation for countless breakthroughs across disciplines, driving innovation in infrastructure, materials, and emerging technologies. EMI 2026 invites you to come visit Boulder and engage in this exciting conference to discuss recent fundamental advances in engineering mechanics and explore how fundamental principles of mechanics inspire cutting edge innovations. 

At this international conference, you will learn about the latest discoveries in the field of engineering mechanics, disseminate your own contributions at topical symposia, support our students, listen to distinguished plenary lectures, and participate in networking events to advance engineering entrepreneurship, research, and practice. Join us as we push the boundaries of mechanics to address today’s challenges and shape the future of engineering innovation.
