This is the wrong group, but I happen to know how to do this in your  
case. In the IEEEtran class, you can manually even the columns by  
putting this command before your \bibliography{..} command:

\IEEEtriggeratref{45}

Replace 45 with the reference number where you want the column break  
to occur.

With other document classes you can use the multicol package.
