Teaching Interests
Prof. Voronov is a nationally recognized educator with teaching interests in Transport Phenomena and Computing in Chemical Engineering (ChE). He serves on the Department of Chemical and Materials Engineering's Undergraduate Curriculum Committee. Roman was among just 20 young faculty across the U.S. to be invited to present at the CACHE 50th Anniversary Conference on the Future of Cyber-assisted ChE Education.
Additionally, he is a recipient of the National Science Foundation's “Engineering In Practice Fellowship”, and a graduate of the National Effective Teaching Institute (NETI-1). Among his accomplishments was leading the first survey of the U.S. chemical engineering curriculum in the past 60 years:
R.S. Voronov, S. Basuray, G. Obuskovic, L. Simon, R.B. Barat, and E.A. Bilgili, 2017. “Statistical analysis of undergraduate chemical engineering curricula of United States of America universities: Trends and observations”. Education for Chemical Engineers*, 20, 1-10.
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ece.2017.04.002
Additionally, Prof. Voronov has participated in developing computational tools (e.g., apps) for enhancing and modernizing the ChE education:
"Apps for Chemical Engineering Education: Off the Shelf and Do It Yourself Development Options." ANF Versypt, JE Bara, RB Getman, CA Kieslich, RS Voronov, 2020. Chemical Engineering Education 54 (3), 137-142. https://journals.flvc.org/cee/article/view/116709
