Dr. Edward A. Bogucz is Executive Director of SyracuseCoE and Associate Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Syracuse University. SyracuseCoE was established in 2002 as New York State’s Center of Excellence in Environmental and Energy Systems. Led by Syracuse University, SyracuseCoE engages partner companies and academic institutions to conduct research, development, demonstration (RD&D) projects that accelerate commercialization of innovations in clean and renewable energy, indoor environmental quality and building energy efficiency, and water resources. SyracuseCoE’s 55,000-square-foot headquarters building serves as a unique whole-building testbed; its specialized RD&D facilities include the Willis H. Carrier Total Indoor Environmental Quality (TIEQ) Laboratory, which has been used to conduct pioneering research on impacts of air quality and ventilation on the cognitive function of office workers. Previously, Bogucz served more than eight years as Syracuse University’s Dean of Engineering and Computer Science. He earned B.S. and Ph.D. degrees in mechanical engineering from Lehigh University and an M.S. degree in heat transfer engineering from London’s Imperial College.
