  3. Mr Brandon Baldwin – Automotive • MS in Career and Technical Education at Buffalo State College; other degrees earned at Cornell University and SUNY Morrisville. • Mr. Baldwin will assume teaching responsibilities in Automotive Technology where he will also spearhead efforts to garner NATEF certification for SUNY Canton automotive programs. • Extensive teaching, applications, and service experience in the automobile industry including responsibilities at Erie Community College, various manufacturers’ representatives, and several BOCES facilities. CSOET Meeting

  4. Dr Stephen Frempong – EET • Teaching experience in RF and digital communications, telecommunications, instrumentation, and engineering management. • Prior teaching responsibilities at University of West Virginia, Western Carolina University, Johns Hopkins, and Morgan State University. • PhD from California Coast University with other degrees earned at Pace University, and CUNY. • Responsibilities include teaching in EET and assisting with lab upgrades and program enhancements. CSOET Meeting

  5. Dr John Zielinski – Physics • Teaching & Research experience at University of Illinois, RPI, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, the University of Texas, West Virginia University and Roanoke State Community College. Peace Corps Volunteer in Brazil. • PhD in EE from University of Texas; MD from the University of Tennessee. Additional degrees earned at the University of Illinois and the University of Notre Dame. • Delighted to have Dr Zielinski assume Physics teaching responsibilities and assist with efforts to update coursework, labs, and integration with other CSOET programs. CSOET Meeting

  6. 1st Impressions • Remarkable opportunity . . . and responsibility. • A bit of information overload – to be expected. • The people of SUNY Canton are Positive, Capable and Effective. • Community celebrates SUNY Canton & CSOET • Need to focus priorities and message CSOET Meeting

  7. Likely Priorities • Increase enrollment & student quality.* • Determine “right” balance among 1-, 2-, & 4-yr programs.* • Rationalize program structure.* • Improve message: newsletters, web, print.* • Evolve & add program curricula.* • Reduce course redundancy; Add electives & projects.* • Increase faculty and staff.* • Rationalize course scheduling and teaching assignments. * Enhance Reputation CSOET Meeting

  8. Future of CSOET (??) • Thematic foci – four broad areas • Teamwork/interdisciplinary/projects • Robust labs, multi-functional, “experiment-at-distance” • 4-year programs: 50% of students • Commence/expand online presence • Building renovation – bring Nevaldine alive with learning CSOET Meeting

  9. Goal 1. Academic Standards Acquire and/or maintain appropriate program accreditations that certify program quality and serve to increase program strength. Continue implementation and improvement of program outcomes assessment processes that will yield continuous improvement and thus support strategic growth and change initiatives. CSOET Meeting

  10. Goal 2: Content Delivery Identify opportunities that will enable utilization of 21st century instructional technologies in supporting new content delivery protocols. Reduce content redundancy within and among program curricula to enable better focus in pursuing strategic growth opportunities. CSOET Meeting

  11. Goal 3: Instruction Provide professional development opportunities for faculty and ISA resources that will facilitate improved instructional effectiveness, increased utilization of new teaching technologies, and the further pursuit of interdisciplinary collaborations. CSOET Meeting

  12. Goal 4. Program Balance Offer a mix of programs that provide strong yet flexible academic growth paths along the general themes of energy, facilities, information, and transportation. Programs will meet evolving market needs and leverage for synergy within the Canino School of Engineering Technology. CSOET Meeting

  13. Goal 5: Facilities Assure that teaching/laboratory facilities are state-of-art. Facilities and equipment should serve multiple program areas where possible thus reducing redundancy. Facilities (laboratories, in particular) will increasingly rely on internet connectivity to support experimentation-at-distance. Facility and equipment utilization rates will attain satisfactory levels. CSOET Meeting

  14. Goal 6: Enrollment Attract sufficient number and quality of students to each program stream to assure a critical mass of students and alumni; this will validate program strength and justify investment of resources to assure continued program growth and enhancement. Seek strategies that will suitably improve student retention and graduation rates. CSOET Meeting

  15. Goal 7: Community Partnerships & Program Visibility: Clarify the structure and “fit” of programs offered by the Canino School of Engineering Technology to improve attractiveness of programs. Adjust the advisory board structure to enable more effective support of program performance reviews and strategic planning efforts. Expand efforts to improve/expand print literature, newsletter, and web-based communication resources. CSOET Meeting

  16. Additional Items • Other items. • Questions? • Next meetings (1pm in NN125): • October (10/3 w/Dr Brown) • November (11/7 (w/Dr Kennedy) • December – to be scheduled if needed. CSOET Meeting
