On April 19 Chapman University leadership, faculty, staff, friends and family, and over 20 alumni from four decades came back to campus to celebrate Dr. Virginia Carson’s retirement. Dr. Carson wore many hats during her 45 years at Chapman including Professor of Biological Sciences, American Association for the Advancement of Science Fellow,

Tutoring is probably one of the oldest teaching methods. In ancient Greece, in the time of Plato and Socrates, the children of the wealthy were educated individually or in small groups by masters or tutors. During the Middle Ages the children of nobles and the wealthy continued receiving their education from tutors. When more formalized
Dr. Justin Dressel, assistant professor of physics at Chapman University’s Schmid College of Science and Technology, was recently featured on WAMC’s The Academic Minute explaining, “how quantum physics has a lot to do with what shows up on your screen.” If you missed the live broadcast of Dressel’s The Academic Minute, its audio & transcript can be found
Today we recognize The Great California Shakeout of 2015, on October 15, 2015, at 10:15 a.m., to bring awareness to the importance of earthquake preparedness. Dr. Ramesh P. Singh‘s recent article on the April 2015 Nepal earthquake reminds us how devastating these phenomena can be. The recent earthquake [Magnitude 7.8] of April 25, 2015, occurred at 11:56
Chapman University’s Machine Learning & Assistive Technology (MLAT) Lab was only just founded in January of 2015, but the work coming out of it is already proving to be not just useful, but important. The goal, ultimately, of the MLAT Lab has been to provide a formal organization for researchers at Chapman who are dedicated to
Chapman University’s 2015 Homecoming Celebration is Friday, October 2 – Sunday, October 4, and Schmid College of Science and Technology has plenty of great events planned for you! Homecoming is a great opportunity to mix and mingle with students, alumni, parents and colleagues. See our schedule of events below and register online. Friday, October 2 Faculty
In the first weeks of fall semester, the campus is abuzz with talk about what everyone did during the summer, how it sped by, and what adventures they had. For me, the most memorable part of this summer was experiencing winter in July for the first time in my life. I had the privilege of
We thought you ought to know – Schmid College has some new faculty members! But rather than ask them about important things like their research and experience ( which you can find here ), we figured we’d ask them trivial things that aren’t really relevant to, well, anything. Meet the new faculty members of 2015
As scientists and humans, we are all going to make errors in our work – hopefully those errors arise from honest mistakes and not bias. In experimental science, we are accustomed to performing research using the principles of the scientific method. We form a hypothesis, conduct an experiment, collect data, analyze and interpret the data,
