Gordon Silverman, Chairman, arrived on campus in 1991 and holds degrees from Columbia University as well as Polytechnic University (Ph.D. in System Science). He has close to 40 years of industrial, research and teaching experience and is particularly interested in the engineering applications of computers with special emphasis on instrumentation, data acquisition and Biomedicine. His most recent teaching activities have been primarily in Computer Engineering. Gordon has just published his fourth book to go along with the numerous research papers he has authored. He prefers nonfiction and the opera. He loves pool -- the swimming variety -- and loves to prove to the undergraduates that volleyball and softball are not their unchallenged skill domain.
