Please join us in congratulating Francesco Bullo on being chosen an IEEE Fellow. The IEEE Board of Directors, at its November 2009 meeting, elevated Francesco Bullo to IEEE Fellow, effective, 1 January 2010, with the following citation:

for contributions to geometric and cooperative control with applications to mechanical and robotic systems

Elevation to Fellow is one of the Institute's most prestigious honors. Fewer than one tenth of one percent of the members are recommended for this grade each year.

Accomplishments like this one continue to affirm our faculty's high standing in their respective fields, and continue to make UCSB Mechanical Engineering a fruitful place to collaborate, discover, teach, and study.
