Faculty
The main strength of our faculty is that all of them have extensive industrial and professional experience. Each faculty member generally teaches in his own area of expertise. There are no members of the CET faculty who have strictly educational training or technical education training without work experience. Secondly, there is considerable overlap in the experience and education of our staff so that each member can readily teach other courses if necessary.
Professor Wade H. Bailey teaches courses in engineering
mechanics, strength of materials, structural analysis, design of steel structures,
hydraulics, and hydrology. He received a B.S. in Aerospace Engineering from
West Virginia University, and a M.S. in Aeronautical Engineering Engineering
from the Air Force Institute of Technology. Prof. Bailey has extensive background
in engineering materials and is an author of a textbook in statics and strength
of materials.
