Message from the Department Chair
Winter 2012
Since taking on the position of department chair in July 2010, I’ve had the chance to get reacquainted with many of our alumni. Rarely do I attend a local professional meeting, or visit a local agency or consultancy, and not come across one of our successful graduates. Like a proud parent, it warms my heart to see our graduates in a professional setting, having matured and taken on responsibilities in leadership roles, and by serving the best interests of their employers and profession.

DOE Supports Energy Efficiency to Improve Community Resilience
Ensuring access to a secure building at a suitable temperature is of paramount importance for the well-being of communities during severe weather events and climate-related disasters. In California, the DOE is actively supporting innovative housing initiatives. These developments incorporate high-efficiency electric appliances, solar panels, and battery systems. They are also integrated into microgrids designed to remain operational, even in the event of grid blackouts triggered by climate-induced wildfires, heatwaves, or storms.

Droughts are cutting into California’s hydropower. Here’s what that means for clean energy.
During high-stress times on the grid, the reduced reliability of hydropower is already causing problems, says Brian Tarroja, an energy researcher at the University of California, Irvine. … These difficulties are likely to continue, Tarroja says. Climate change is altering rainfall patterns and causing higher temperatures, even if overall precipitation stays constant.

Diversity Dies At The Top: Human Or Robot, The Board Rules The Day (Part 2 Of The Time Capsule Project Series)
Neil Sahota, [UCI lecturer, school of engineering], writes, “While many organizations can point to better success with diversity and inclusion (D&I) at the lower-level positions, real D&I success is built upon at all levels, most especially the boardroom. In Part 1 of article series, we shared the general challenges of D&I and the need for the Time Capsule Project.
