"... It took us two years to search nationwide for the
right person to lead the Center. We made a spectacular
choice and recruited Professor Magdy Iskander
from the University of Utah to lead the Center. Magdy
and I have worked together closely and in consortia. He
has taken the Center to new levels of excellence that
promotes multi-disciplinary research, international
collaboration, and partnership with industry.
As
a research unit, the center places a significant focus
of its activities and efforts on attracting research
funding, recruiting doctoral students, and building
research facilities. This year, the Center's funding
reached a new high of $1.2 million, or $600,000 per
faculty with eight doctoral students, or per faculty, an
incredible achievement by any measure..."
