Samuel Graham

During Samuel Graham’s tenure as dean, the Clark School had advanced its trendsetting research in engineering and medicine, robotics and autonomous systems, semiconductors, transportation, artificial intelligence, energy storage and systems, and quantum technology. The school has also launched new academic programs including a degree program in engineering AI, a minor in quantum science and engineering, the Edward and Jennifer St. John Center for Translational Engineering and Medicine, and a Capstone Design Expo. Graham also led the development of the school’s new strategic plan, We Innovate for the Public Good, focusing on reimagining how we teach to advance learning; accelerating research, discovery, innovation, and impact; empowering the Clark School community; and building partnerships to enhance our impact. Graham’s research centers on the development of electronics made from wide bandgap semiconductors for a range of applications in communications, power electronics, and neuromorphic computing.
