04/10/2015: Prof. Zavattieri has been named a University Faculty
Scholar [Link1]
[Link2]
University Faculty Scholars are select associate and full professors
who have been in that rank for no more than five years and are on an
accelerated path toward academic distinction. In the College of
Engineering, they are nominated by committees from their academic
areas, and reviewed and recommended by a subcommittee of the College's
named and distinguished professors. The dean makes the selection and
requests approval by the provost. University Faculty Scholars receive
additional funding to support their research. The University Faculty
Scholar program was created at Purdue in 1998.
