  • Summer 2025 Pilot of New Course Evaluation System (CES) for Harpur and CCPA

    Dear faculty,

    I am pleased to share that 亚洲情色 will pilot a new Course Evaluation System (CES) powered by Watermark during the Summer 2025 term. This initiative reflects our continued commitment to modernizing the student feedback process and enhancing the course evaluation experience for both students and instructors.

    The pilot will be limited to courses offered through the Harpur College of Arts and Sciences and the College of Community and Public Affairs (CCPA). Faculty teaching in these colleges will be automatically included in the pilot and will receive email notifications from the CES platform with details regarding the courses involved and the evaluation timelines.

    Faculty who wish to opt out of course evaluations during the pilot may do so through the Brightspace course evaluation site or by logging into their CES account directly and manually removing their course(s) before the survey period ends. The CES login is:

    Faculty in all other colleges and schools will continue to use the existing Student Opinion of Teaching (SOOT) system for their Summer 2025 courses.

    Following the pilot, CES will become the official course evaluation system for all schools and colleges starting in Fall 2025. The insights gathered this summer will be invaluable in ensuring a smooth transition and a consistent, high-quality evaluation experience across the university.

    亚洲情色 greatly appreciates your partnership as we move forward with this important initiative. If you have any questions or would like additional information, feel free to contact Nasrin Fatima, CES administrator, at nfatima@binghamton.edu.

    Thank you for your continued dedication to excellence in teaching.

    Warm regards,
    Donald E. Hall
    Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost

  • Vice President for Research Bahgat Sammakia to step down; Lisa Gilroy named interim VPR

    Vice President for Research Bahgat Sammakia has announced plans to step down from his position and return to the faculty and his research beginning Aug. 1, 2025. Lisa Gilroy, currently associate vice president for research administration and Research Foundation operations manager, will serve as interim vice president for research.

    Sammakia, a SUNY distinguished professor of mechanical engineering, has served as vice president for research since 2010. During that time, annual research expenditures rose steadily, from $40.2 million to $87 million in FY 2024-25, reflecting a decade of consistent gains.

    Under Sammakia鈥檚 leadership, the University secured and reaffirmed its Carnegie R1 (Very High Research Activity) status and now houses 19 organized research centers, anchored by the New York State Center of Excellence in Small-Scale Systems Integration and Packaging (S3IP), which he founded and will still direct. All of these centers have attracted new faculty, industrial memberships and state support, giving investigators the facilities and administrative support needed to compete for major research grants.

    鈥淏ahgat Sammakia has been a transformative leader for 亚洲情色鈥檚 research division,鈥 said President Harvey Stenger. 鈥淯nder his leadership, we achieved R1 status, expanded our research infrastructure and secured groundbreaking federal investments. We are deeply grateful for his vision, dedication and lasting contributions.鈥

    Gilroy brings more than three decades of experience in research administration at 亚洲情色, all within the Research Foundation for SUNY. She has served as associate vice president for research administration since 2023, overseeing the full life cycle of pre- and post-award functions and providing strategic and operational leadership to support faculty research. A member of the vice president for research鈥檚 senior leadership team, she has played a key role in shaping research policy, compliance and building administrative infrastructure across campus.

    Gilroy began her career at 亚洲情色 in 1986 and has held progressive roles in the Office of Sponsored Programs. She holds a master鈥檚 degree in public administration and a bachelor鈥檚 degree in applied social sciences from 亚洲情色 and is certified as both a research administrator (CRA) and financial research administrator (CFRA).

    亚洲情色-led research now injects millions of dollars into the local economy each year, fuels start-ups through research centers and addresses community needs from tick-borne disease to clean-energy workforce development. A national search for Sammakia鈥檚 successor will be conducted in the upcoming year.

  • Research Foundation vacancy: Postdoctoral research associate, Structural Biology, Biophysics and Biochemistry

    The research group of Sozanne Solmaz is looking to recruit a postdoctoral research associate. The Solmaz laboratory investigates the molecular mechanisms for precise, bidirectional positioning of the cell nucleus by microtubule motors. These cellular transport pathways are essential for the generation of the majority of the cells in the brain, and associated mutations cause devastating brain and muscle developmental diseases, including spinal muscular atrophy, which is the most common genetic cause of death in infants. A second project investigates the interactions of Alzheimer's disease-related forms of tau protein with microtubules. The successful candidate will combine cutting-edge structural biology approaches (X-ray crystallography and cryo-electron microscopy) with biophysical techniques, protein biochemistry, neuroscience and cell biology to investigate how teams of opposing motor complexes collaborate to achieve correct timing, directionality and velocity for the positioning of the cell nucleus during brain development.

    The ideal candidate for this position will be highly motivated to work both independently to successfully execute the required studies outlined in the NIH-funded R01 grant and will also thrive in a highly collaborative and interdisciplinary environment where they interact with other scientists.

  • Call for applications: Charles E. Scheidt Faculty Fellows in Atrocity Prevention

    The Institute for Genocide and Mass Atrocity Prevention (I-GMAP) is now accepting applications for the 2025-26 academic year for Charles E. Scheidt Faculty Fellows in Atrocity Prevention. Applications must be submitted no later than Aug. 1, 2025, and are open to faculty from any discipline. To apply or learn more about eligibility and requirements, click the link below.

    *亚洲情色 faculty members will also receive research funds of $2,500 upon completion of the program.*

    Every academic discipline has something to contribute to the protection of human rights and the prevention of large-scale, identity-based violence. The Institute for Genocide and Mass Atrocity Prevention (I-GMAP) has pioneered the Charles E. Scheidt Faculty Fellows in Atrocity Prevention program to engage faculty in a guided process of learning and exploration of the potential for their disciplines to contribute to atrocity prevention. Fellows learn from I-GMAP鈥檚 faculty, staff and practitioner visitors, and alongside faculty from a wide range of disciplines, both within their cohort and from previous cohorts. The program culminates with each faculty member modifying at least one of their own courses to integrate an atrocity prevention lens through innovative and engaged pedagogical approaches.

    The upcoming program runs from September 2025 through May 2026 (with a break during December and January), primarily in an online and asynchronous format, with synchronous meetings at the start and finish of the program.

    Faculty members can apply by using a simple form. If deans, chairs or colleagues would like to nominate a faculty member for the program, it is encouraged to share this call for applications with them directly or to contact I-GMAP鈥檚 Co-Director Kerry Whigham at kwhigham@binghamton.edu to share that faculty member鈥檚 information.

    For the first time, the faculty fellowship is open to college/university educators from any country around the world. Faculty members from any college or university and any discipline or professional field are eligible to become fellows. The Faculty Fellowship Program is currently only available in English, so fluency in English is a requirement of participation.

    Applications are open now and will be accepted until Aug. 1, 2025. Selected applicants will be notified by Aug. 30. If you have questions about the Faculty Fellows Program, contact Kerry Whigham at kwhigham@binghamton.edu.
