Activities
/ Achievements as a Dept. Head: |
|
|
- Successfully started and expanded the
new Computer Graphics Technology program.
|
|
|
- Added Manufacturing Engineering
Technology as an option under MET & IET.
|
|
|
- Increased the number of faculty in METS
from 11 to 16, while increasing enrollment
in the department from 320 in 1996 to 506 in
fall 2005.
|
|
|
- Continuously promote scholarly activity
of faculty by rewarding them. The amount of
awarded contracts and grants for the METS
department was over $300,000 in 2005. This
was a cultural change in the SOT
departments.
|
|
|
- Have worked closely with the department
of Distance Education and Extended Learning
(DEEL) to promote faculty outside activity
through training. This has also increased
the unrestricted cash budget of the METS
department to over $100,000.
|
|
|
- Increased the student membership in
professional societies in the two
departments to 180. This was the result of
paying the first year membership fee for
students from departmental funds.
|
|
|
- Developed a system of faculty
evaluation, incorporating continuous
improvement.
|
|
|
- Managed to re-vamp the two options of
Computers, Networking, & telecommunications
as well as Process Control Instrumentation
in the ECET department. Also supported the
creation of Cisco Academy that has become a
good recruitment tool as well as a money
generator.
|
|
|
- Justified hiring of academic advisors
for both departments.
|
|
|
- Re-organized the senior project
presentation format and combined both
departments presentations to emulate a
conference atmosphere on the presentation
day.
|
|
|
- Started hiring of Engineering Graduate
students as Graduate Aids to help both ET
departments’ faculty in laboratories, as
well as the Engineering department by
attracting more graduate students through
offering graduate assistantships.
|
|
|
- Increases in the flexible budget of both
departments has resulted in providing more
graduate student help for faculty for their
research.
