ADMINISTRATIVE/MANAGEMENT EXPERIENCE
UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA-LINCOLN
Modified use of state research funds to provide external funding incentives - This involved the diversion of
funding from mature, stable programs into new-faculty laboratory starts and matching of external grant
proposals.
Instrumental in procuring funding and operating first college-level minicomputer system - A VAX-11/780
system supporting 100 terminal units was installed in four different buildings across the campus under this
program. My part in this was to work with faculty committees to identify the needs, the upper
administration to secure the funding, a computer systems administrator to insure that the system would work
and be compatible with other systems on campus, and several vendors in the bidding and installation
phases.
Administered and leveraged funding for four major research laboratories - In order to improve our
research competitiveness, we developed four major laboratories: an electro-optics laboratory, a vechicle
crash-test facility, a vibrations/NDE laboratory, and a flow visualization laboratory. I worked with
Principal Investigators to expedite the acquisition of equipment, obtain funding from the administration, and
find grant sources to assist with funding.
Organized and co-authored an NSF proposal for an Engineering Research Center - I worked with several
investigators from Mechanical Engineering, Agricultural Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Engineering
Mechanics, and the Department of Food Technology as well as several industrial companies to develop a
proposal for a Food Processing Engineering Research Center.
Developed office automation systems - This involved the acquisition, installation, programming, training,
and managing of a networked system of microcomputers to serve the administrative needs of an office of
four deans and seven staff persons.
Served as Interim Chairman of the Mechanical Engineering Department - For one semester during the
search for a new chairperson, I was assigned as Interim Chairman of the department.
Worked with state legislators and provided testimony to legislative committees regarding research funding
needs - On many occasions, I worked directly with legislators or their researchers to develop legislation for
educational and research programs and their funding. Twice this required testifying to the appropriate
legislative committees.
Worked with college and university faculty committees, the Academic Computing Center, and VicePresident of Academic Affairs to improve computing facilities and services - As the University moved from
an administrative computing function to a separate academic computing function, I assisted the VicePresident with developing the plans for this transition. I worked with many faculty, faculty committees,
administrators, and staff persons from throughout the local and remote campuses during this project.
Identified funding sources and assisted faculty with proposal preparation - Primarily, I worked with young
or new faculty to be sure that they developed the proper perspective regarding research funding and its
importance, and helped them gain the experience to be successful in this endeavor.
Assisted with the recruitment of departmental chairpersons and faculty - As an Assistant Dean, I was
included in the interviewing of all engineering faculty candidates and consulted as to their potential as a
researcher and scholar. I also served on the search committees for a Dean, Chemical Engineering
chairperson, Mechanical Engineering chairperson, Computer Science chairperson, Civil Engineering
chairperson, and Industrial Engineering chairperson.
TEXAS TECH UNIVERSITY
Edward E. Anderson ----------------------------- Resume ----------------------------------------------- Page 14
Teaching, Learning, and Technology Center - As the Associate Director of this newly established center, I
have designed faculty development programs for inclusion of electronic media in instruction, equipped a
multimedia training and development laboratory, coordinated a remodeling project with architects, assisted
faculty develop instructional grants, and assisted with a faculty grant program. The focus of my efforts in
this center is upon stimulating the use of electronic media for instructional and distance education purposes.
Administered remodeling project for new departmental facilities - We completed a three year program to
remodel an 88,000 square foot building to the department's specifications. This project involved almost
$2.5M and a major $400K research facility.
Effected a thorough curriculum revision to improve accreditation position - Our curriculum was fairly
classical with considerable emphasis on engineering science. It was restructured to offer more design
experience and meet other needs such as technical writing, communication skills, and economic analysis.
Prepared and underwent 2 ABET/EAC accreditation reviews - My first accreditation involved considerable
effort since we were in the middle of two curricula. Hence, it became a problem of getting two curricula
and one department accredited. My second review (6 years later) was simpler, but complicated by the
changing requirements of the time.
Improved annual external research by a factor of six to an annual expenditure level approaching $2M When I first joined the department, the research and graduate studies were minimal and I was charged with
changing this situation. On a per faculty member basis, our funding and graduate student productivity at
one time during my tenure met or exceeded the national averages for mechanical engineering departments.
Perhaps more interesting is the fact that much of this activity is sponsored by industry. In fact, our
university/industry research program was recognized in engineering education circles.
Initiated an annual alumni newsletter - We had to improve the alumni support of the department.
Instrumental to this effort was an alumni newsletter to keep them informed of our activities and needs. This
avenue of communication did not exist prior to the time I joined the department.
Administered about $1M of equipment expenditures - I used some of this money as provided by the State of
Texas as leverage against other sources. At that time, we garnered about $500,000, in addition to our base
support. Our total annual funding for equipment greatly exceeded national norms.
Hired seven new faculty - These hires allowed the ME department to expand into new areas such as
computational fluid mechanics, NDE testing, and manufacturing process while at the same time
complimenting our traditional strengths and programs.
Obtained ten promotions and six tenures; declined two tenures - I only include this to demonstrate that I
can reward people when appropriate and I am willing to take other action when necessary.
Modified advising and student record system to better serve students - When I joined the ME department, I
found the advising system to be confusing to the student and very time consuming for faculty, staff, and
students. To reduce these problems, I designed and programmed a computer-assisted system to better serve
the advising process so that more attention can be given to the quality aspects of advising rather than the
administrative aspects.
Provided an environment in which faculty scholarly and graduate studies activity increased significantly This was my most satisfying activity since I could see the excitement being reestablished in our faculty,
Their professional growth was again moving, fun things were going on in our laboratories, our national
image was improving, we were again writing papers and books, our campus image was improving, and we
were more competitive within the college and university. The department went from not being on the list to
number three of the top ten research departments at Texas Tech University. The ME faculty were really
responsible for this change. All I did was provide a proper philosophical basis and eliminated as many of
the impediments preventing their growth as possible.
Led or participated in two major, interdisciplinary research proposal efforts - I served as the Principal
Investigator for an interdisciplinary team of Mechanical Engineers, Industrial Engineers, Psychologists,
Medical Researchers, Computer Scientists, and Civil Engineers in preparing and submitting a $25M
Edward E. Anderson ----------------------------- Resume ----------------------------------------------- Page 15
proposal to DOT for a major research laboratory. I also served as the College's lead person in a national
engineering education coalition proposal effort.
Established the TTU Academy of Mechanical Engineers - As part of the goal to improve our relationship
with the departmental alumni, and develop a broad basis of support for the department, we established an
Academy of Mechanical Engineers that recognizes outstanding, mid-career alumni. This academy now
provides scholarship and development funds, as well as serving as a network for our students to use in
career advising and job location.
TTU - TEACHING, LEARNING, AND TECHNOLOGY CENTER
Established the Faculty Multimedia Laboratory - This $300,000 laboratory was developed to provide
faculty access to high-end equipment for the development of electronic materials for their teaching. My
role in this laboratory was to carry out an equipment plan, select appropriate software, and oversee the
operation of this laboratory. I also planned for the future growth of this laboratory and oversaw the
management of this laboratory through the University’s computer services unit.
Developed and Oversaw Faculty Education - The Center developed several workshops for faculty training.
These workshops cover the use of technology as a teaching tool, specific software use, and the use of
specific hardware. Several of the workshops were developed and taught by myself. I supervised an
Instructional Development Consultant who also developed and taught faculty workshops. In addition, I
organized an annual major faculty workshop which is conducted by external experts.
Supervised and Conducted Faculty Roundtables - In order to stimulate faculty involvement with
educational technology, we conducted a series of roundtables where faculty who are incorporating
technology in their teaching could share their experiences with others. My role in this was principally one
of organization. At the end of my tenure, we developed a new series dedicated specifically to the use of the
internet in teaching.
University Consultant - I assisted individual faculty, departments, and colleges with all matters regarding
instructional technology. This covered anything from helping individual faculty with specific course
development to the planning of networks and classrooms.
