Bio
Professor Margaret Bailey, Ph.D., P.E. recently moved from her inaugural role as Senior Faculty Associate to the Provost which she has held since 2013 to become the first director of the newly institutionalized ADVANCE RIT unit within the Office of the Provost. Dr. Bailey has led various NSF ADVANCE funded efforts at Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) since 2008 including a six-year, $4M institutional transformation cross-university project which resulted in the newly institutionalized ADVANCE unit. Dr. Bailey is a Professor of Mechanical Engineering within the Kate Gleason College of Engineering and she teaches courses and conducts research related to Thermodynamics, engineering and public policy, inclusion and organizational development, engineering education, and gender in engineering and science. Dr. Bailey co-authors the engineering textbook, Fundamentals of Engineering Thermodynamics, which is the top textbook worldwide within its field with over 250 adoptions and she is an author on over 85 peer-reviewed publications.

Gender diversity: increasing representation of female faculty and female students in STEM disciplines
Research areas: Female students
Increased retention and graduation through participation in cooperative education experiences
Currently Teaching
MECE-348
Contemporary Issues
3 Credits
This course introduces students to contemporary technologies in a specific field of mechanical engineering. In the process of exploring these technologies, the course teaches and applies skills related to communication, economic analysis, ethical analysis, and explores the positive and negative effects of technologies on our society and environment. Specific attention is focused on current events both domestically and internationally.
