In response to considerable budget pressure, we have reduced expenses in some areas and simultaneously identified new revenue. This has resulted in an ability to maintain our faculty tenured/tenure-track staffing at 135, an important measure of school health. When it comes to our new hires, we are very satisfied with our ability to attract top talent from leading engineering schools. Our quality faculty have achieved top distinctions: Venu Govindaraju, IEEE Computer Society 2010 Technical Achievement Award; Mark Karwan, a SUNY Distinguished Teaching Award; Kemper Lewis, an ASEE Fred Merryfield Design Award; Chang Wen Chen a prestigious Humboldt Research Award. Please see the Top Stories and Faculty sections for more. We are also undergoing several leadership changes in the school, with faculty moving to university posts. A.
