Bagley College of Engineering Names Four Faculty to Hearin Eminent Scholar Awards
Our four newest Hearin Eminent Scholars for the Bagley College of Engineering are Dr. Ioana Banicescu (CSE), Dr. Susan Bridges (CSE), Dr. Alan Greenwood (IE), and Dr. Rudy Rogers (ChE). The Hearin Eminent Scholar awards are made possible by a grant through the Hearin Foundation, which has been a very strong supporter of the Bagley College of Engineering for over a decade. In addition to the title of Hearin Eminent Scholar, awardees also receive an annual cash award in recognition of continuing excellence in research, teaching, and service. These awards were made following nominations from Department Heads. Nominations included five-year averages demonstrating superior performance in the three main areas of faculty responsibility: research (external research grants, journal publications, graduate student supervision), teaching (student evaluation scores), and external service (leadership in national organizations). The final decision on the awards was made by the Dean of Engineering. A total of 10 faculty members are currently recognized as Hearin Eminent Scholars within the Bagley College of Engineering. In addition to the four new Hearin Eminent Scholars, six current faculty members also hold the title of Hearin Eminent Scholar: Dr. Louay Chamra (ME), Dr. Steve Daniewicz (ME), Dr. James Newman, Jr. (ASE), Dr. Nicholas Younan (ECE), Dr. Joe Picone (ECE), and Dr. Joe Thompson (ASE). Please join us in congratulating Ioana, Susan, Alan, and Rudy on their accomplishments and recognition as Hearin Eminent Scholars! We will have a reception in their honor in the near future
