THE SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING FACULTY Larry Larson Dean, School of Engineering Larry Larson began his tenure as dean of the School of Engineering at Brown University in July 2011. Prior to this appointment, he was chair of the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at the University of California San Diego s Jacobs School of Engineering and was the first faculty member to hold the Communications Industry Chair. Larson joined USCD after a 16-year career at Hughes Research Laboratories. There, he pioneered the development of analog integrated circuits and new generations of low-noise high-electron mobility transistors (HEMTs), as well as microwave integrated circuits in SiGe HBT technology. Larson received his Ph.D. from UCLA in 1986. He has published more than 300 papers in peer-reviewed journals and international conferences and edited or co-authored three books. He holds 39 patents. 48 Full-time, tenure-track faculty members 18 Research faculty and lecturers including 19 Fellows of major professional societies 13 National Science Foundation Career Awards 5 Members of the National Academy of Engineering 4 Members of the American Academy of Arts & Sciences 2 Fellows of the American Association for the Advancement of Science 2 Guggenheim fellows 1 Fellow of the Royal Society STUDENTS 450 Undergraduate students* 161 Graduate students including 111 PhD 30 ScM Engineering 20 ScMIM PRIME 35 Postdoctoral research associates * The most recently admitted freshman class of engineers consisted of 41% women and 21% underrepresented minorities.

STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS BROWN DESIGN WORKSHOP GENERAL INTEREST Brown Building Society (BBS) Brown CubeSat Project (CubeSat) National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE) Society of Women Engineers (SWE) Women in Science and Engineers (WiSE) HONOR SOCIETIES COMPETITIVE TEAMS Formula Society of Automotive Engineers (FSAE) International Genetically Engineered Machines (igem) CONCENTRATION SPECIFIC/ PRE-PROFESSIONAL SOCIETIES Sigma Xi (Sigma Xi) Tau Beta Pi (TBP) American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Biomedical Engineering Society (BME) Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Materials Research Society (MRS) The creation of the Design Workshop in Prince Lab is a key to the overall re-envisioning of engineering which aims to make the disciplines of creation and design more collaborative, open, flexible and accessible to all parts of campus. THE BROWN DESIGN WORKSHOP: Enhances the entrepreneurial ecosystem for rapid prototyping of new student ideas Trains students in state-of-the art prototyping techniques and tools Provides a collaborative and creative environment for project-based learning for the whole campus. Workshops are being held for the entire Brown community, to introduce all students to these amazing new capabilities. EQUiSat Techstyle Haus assembled in Versailles, France

DIVERSITY DISTINCTIONS Diversity is a vital component of any university. Exposure to a broad range of perspectives, views and outlooks is key to fostering both breadth and depth in intellectual discovery and furthering research. Brown University is founded on the ideals of academic inclusiveness and the benefits of a liberal education. These principles are held strongly at the School of Engineering, where this philosophy has developed into a culture of multidisciplinarity that crosses many intellectual boundaries. The School of Engineering s success through creative and collaborative approaches are a testament to the benefits of inclusion and working with a variety of diverse perspectives. Admissions History: Percentage of Underrepresented Minorities The Solids Mechanics graduate program was ranked No. 2 in the country by PhDs.org. Brown ranks No. 7 on Forbes list of America s Most Entrepreneurial Universities. A Brown team has won the RI Business Plan Competition for six consecutive years, including this year s winner, Dual Server Cooling, which was a team of PRIME students. The team that created BrainGate brain-computer interface won a major international award, the $1-million Moshe Mirilashvili Memorial Fund B.R.A.I.N. Prize. EQUiSat, a nanosatellite being built by a team of Brown students, is among 16 small satellites selected by NASA to fly on rockets to be launched over the next three years. The Brown/RISD Techstyle Haus was one of only two entries selected from the United States in the 2014 Solar Decathlon Europe. The team finished in the top ten in several categories in the international competition. Active Student Groups National Society of Black Engineers Society of Women Engineers Women in Science and Engineering SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING MISSION STATEMENT Brown University s School of Engineering educates future leaders in the fundamentals of engineering in an environment of world-class research. We stress an interdisciplinary approach and a broad understanding of underlying global issues. Collaborations across the campus and beyond strengthen our development of technological advances that address challenges of vital importance to us all.
