Reid Bailey
Visiting Professor, Mechanical Engineering
BioHow can we help more people learn more about design? And, in so doing, develop problem finders and solvers who bring optimism, curiosity, creativity, judgment, and intentionality to pressing problems faced by people and society.
Reid Bailey studies and practices engineering design education with a focus on process and interdisciplinary systems design. How do people learn design? How do we measure what someone knows about design? How can we make design learning more effective and reach more people?
Reid has created and taught design courses and programs at the University of Virginia, University of Arizona, and University of Dayton, focusing on first-year engineering design and interdisciplinary systems design courses. -
David Beach
Professor (Teaching) of Mechanical Engineering, Emeritus
BioBeach teaches courses in the areas of design and manufacturing. Beach and Craig Milroy co-direct the Product Realization Laboratory which provides 1700 students annually with hands on experiences in product definition, conceptual design, detail design, and prototype creation. The PRL offers courses, mentors and tools in support of integrated designing and making. Pedagogically, Beach believes that creation of experience from which students (and teams of students) can interpret and internalize their own conclusions provides an excellent complement to content based teaching. His goal is to add strength in tacit knowledge which derives from the hands-on synthesis of design, prototype building, presentation and criticism.. The resulting judgment and instinct regarding materials, devices, materials transformation processes, and design process complement classical analytical engineering education to create superior engineers.

Tom Bowman
Professor of Mechanical Engineering, Emeritus
BioProfessor Bowman studies reacting flows, primarily through experimental means, and the processes by which pollutants are formed and destroyed in flames. In addition, he is interested in the environmental impact of energy use, specifically greenhouse gas emissions from use of fossil fuels.
