Research Interests for Jeffrey T. Glass

Jeffrey T. Glass is a Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering and is the Director of the Pratt School?s Master of Engineering Management Program at Duke University. He also holds the Hogg Family endowed chair in Engineering Management and Entrepreneurship. Formerly, he was the Co-Director of The Institute for the Integration of Management and Engineering at Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) and held the Joseph F. Toot, Jr. endowed chair in the Case School of Engineering. Jeff received his Bachelors and Masters degrees from Johns Hopkins University, and a Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering from the University of Virginia. He also received an MBA from Duke University?s Global Executive (GEMBA) program. His current appointment involves research in electronic and biological materials as well as the development of joint educational, research and technology transfer activities related to the intersection of business and technology. He consults and holds advisory board appointments with various companies in materials-related areas. Prior to his appointment at CWRU, he was the Vice President of R&D for Kobe Steel USA Inc. with a focus on electronic materials. Prior to joining Kobe Steel, he was a tenured faculty member in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at North Carolina State University and continues to hold an adjunct appointment with that department. He has been involved in the study of Innovation Management in technology-based organizations with a focus on the early stages of technical development. He holds an adjunct appointment at the Kenan Flagler Business School at the University of North Carolina where he teaches an executive MBA course in Managing Innovation. Jeff?s technical research has focused on the growth and characterization of thin films for electronics, primarily diamond, Zinc Oxide and Silicon Carbide. Chemical vapor deposition, sputtering, materials analysis and electronic properties are his areas of interest. He has published over 100 papers and book chapters, edited six books and is a co-inventor on 11 patents. He has been a short course instructor for several professional societies and companies and has organized numerous conferences. He has given over 50 invited presentations in 12 different countries. He served as a member of a Presidential Science Advisor?s committee for the assessment of diamond technology in Japan and has received two teaching awards and the National Science Foundation Presidential Young Investigator award.
