Meet Our Faculty
Highlights
Bringing innovative mentoring to STEM
Meet Jeremy Qualls, Professor of Physics and the dean of the College of Science, Technology, and Health. He believes that it's the human connection in education that has a significant impact on the trajectory of a student. He plans to create a collaborative workspace to establish a culture of belonging and encourage mentoring relationships between faculty and students to build a stronger STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) workforce of tomorrow.
Hands-on effort to eradicate invasive green crabs
Out of the classroom and into the field! Last Fall, along with Assistant Professor of Biology Rachel Lasley-Rasher, students ventured to Kettle Cove in Cape Elizabeth to examine and measure invasive green crabs. According to Professor Lasley-Rasher, “There are so many organizations in Casco Bay that are doing interesting work in marine science and marine ecology. I really wanted my students to get out and collect data that matters.”
