Meet the Department Chair

Dr. Hossein Rahemi, chair of the engineering and technology department, has been recognized in the fields of vibration, fracture mechanics and reliability analysis. His years of industrial experience in structural analysis, vibration elimination and fatigue prevention of engineering structures has made him an asset to our campus and students. Dr. Rahemi conducted funded research with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in nondestructive testing and the evaluation of surface through-crack detention using a capillary diffusion method (CDM). His technique was reviewed with NASA, and CDM was added to the list of potential inspection methods for surface defects for space shuttle ceramic tiles. For years, Dr. Rahmi has been a mentor to Vaughn students who are pursuing a similar path of success. He has helped students in the VEX Robotics World Championship, the Latin American and Caribbean Conference for Engineering and Technology, and the American Society for Engineering Education Conference reach new heights.
