Words from the Dean<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

March\/April 2018<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Dear colleagues,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am amazed at how fast the year is going. It is already week three of spring term and I hope things are going well for all of you. The term looks to be a busy and productive one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am excited to share the campaign planning we are doing to prepare for the university’s next capital fundraising campaign. I have asked the College’s Leadership Team and the Dean’s Advisory Council to work together to develop messaging and to identify aspirations for the College of Science. Currently, we are planning our overall goals, message and strategy to achieve the goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recently, I convened six subgroups comprised of the two groups listed above, each with a focal area that reflects our strategic plan goals<\/a>. I have also discussed these with our external Board of Advisors, who were enthusiastic about these areas. Now I would like to ask faculty, staff and student volunteers to join working groups to hone these areas further.  If you would be interested in joining one of these working groups, please send me a note and indicate which interests you.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our proposed philanthropic priorities include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Materials Science Building<\/strong> \u2013 This will provide a physical space to innovate new materials to solve problems in energy and electronics <\/strong>through collaborative research and shared equipment. It emphasizes entrepreneurship and innovation through industry partnerships with new faculty working with undergraduate and graduate students.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Science Discovery<\/strong> Center<\/strong> \u2013 This facility will showcase OSU science at work in integrated outreach, learning, teaching and research. It will focus on life and marine sciences and include a display of our collections. Some labs would have glass walls so that visitors could see instrumentation and scientists at work. It would feature marine science to attract OSU students and visitors to Hatfield and the coast as well as display corals. If OSU were to have a planetarium, this could include the space for it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Inclusive Excellence in Education <\/strong>\u2013 This initiative would enable us to provide some of the best science education in the world, with access for disadvantaged and underrepresented students through endowed scholarships for graduate and undergraduate students, academic and teaching support, experiential learning and endowed support for a college-wide Learning Assistants program.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Biohealth Sciences<\/strong> \u2013 This initiative would generate endowed support for our faculty, graduate students and labs working on topics such bioactive compounds to defeat superbugs by developing next-generation antibiotics. This would accelerate our efforts to cure ALS, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, and other neurodegenerative diseases through research on unnatural proteins and genetic code expansion.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Data Science<\/strong> \u2013 This initiative would position the College to be the preferred partner on data science and enhance efforts to use big, complex data to solve real-world problems across all fields in the Pacific Northwest. It would make new faculty and computational resources available to students. This effort includes launching a competitive undergraduate program in Data Science and Security.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    The OSU administration and OSU Foundation will evaluate our ideas and weigh them against likely donor interest and OSU’s overall priorities. I hope you share my excitement as we look to the future of a stronger College of Science at Oregon State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Enrique Thomann<\/strong> will be stepping down as Head of the Mathematics Department where he has served since October 2014. Under his leaderhsip, Enrique has overseen the growth of the undergraduate program, the decrease in time to graduation for graduate students, the initiation and work with the APLU grant that improved student success, and the promotion of many, many instructors and faculty in the department. The Dean’s office will assemble a search committee and conduct an internal search for a new Head during spring term, with an expected transition in the summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Two biochemistry and biophysics students, senior Trisha Chau<\/strong> and recent Ph.D. Nicole Hams<\/strong>, traveled with microbiologist Kate Field<\/strong> to San Sebasti\u00e1n, Puerto Rico, over spring break as part of an OSU service learning trip funded by the Multicultural Scholars Program and the College of Science. Working in tandem with the land-grant University of Puerto Rico Mayag\u00fcez, the students developed learning plans and other assets to directly benefit those living under difficult post-hurricane conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    A new and improved OSU Event Calendar<\/a> offers expanded functionality and easier use. You can add photos, stylize text, link to FB event pages and more. The user experience is vastly<\/em> improved. Check it out!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The College of Science Student Advisory Board<\/strong> is seeking new members. Full-time science students who are interested in the future of COS, willing to provide feedback on their experiences and concerns, eager to build community and work on outreach events are encouraged to apply. Faculty and staff are invited to submit nominations by April 20<\/a> (although later nominations welcome too) and\/or spread the word to students who can also self-nominate.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
