CHAIRMAN'S COLUMN Every year the ECE department publishes an Annual Research Report that describes in detail the research that our ECE faculty and their graduate students have done during the previous year. The ECE department has completed the Annual Report for the 2001-02 academic year which covers the period Sep. 1, 2001 to Aug. 31, 2002. Our 30 faculty members had a total research funding expenditure of $7.5 million during 2001-02 which translates to a research expenditure of $270,000 per faculty member per year. During the previous year 2000-01, our research funding expenditure was $6.9 million, so our yearly research funding has gone up this year. Our faculty and students have written two books, nine book chapters, 89 journal papers, and 98 conference papers during 2001-02. I thank Prof. Allen Taflove, Director of Publicity, Alumni, and Industrial Relations for doing an outstanding and difficult job of compiling this report based on input from various faculty. The report will be printed next week and then sent out to various ECE department chairs, Engineering Deans, and industrial labs across the country. The report will be available as a PDF file from our ECE web page on Monday April 14. I invite all faculty and students to read the report.
