J. Murray Gibson, dean of FAMU-FSU College of Engineering, stepping down in December to return to teaching
J. Murray Gibson, dean of the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering since July 2016, is stepping down in December.
Gibson, a tenured faculty member in mechanical engineering, will go on sabbatical during the spring 2022 semester and return to the college that fall where he will teach and conduct research.
Gibson, 67, called department chairs Tuesday afternoon to notify them of his decision and engineering faculty, staff and students were told by email. Alumni were being notified Wednesday morning.
Under Gibson’s leadership, the joint college moved up 51 points in rankings last year and is now the second highest ranked engineering school in Florida, according to US News and World Report.
The course entitled
Intellectual Property: Inventors, Entrepreneurs, Creators, consists of 12 modules with a total of 38 lectures that can be taken at one s own pace. The purpose of the curriculum, according to Dr. Gary K. Michelson, founder of The Michelson Institute for Intellectual Property, inventor, and Fellow of NAI, is to make information about intellectual property rights more accessible to the public. The importance of IP in our economy where patents, trademarks, and copyrights are keys to success cannot be overstated, says Dr. Michelson. I have experienced this firsthand as an inventor and am glad these lessons are now freely available through this partnership with NAI.

Lijun Yin, professor of computer science at Binghamton University, in his lab at the Center for Excellence at the Innovative Technologies Complex.
Yin, a faculty member in the Department of Computer Science, has been a pioneer in the field of three- and four-dimensional modeling, specifically of the human face. He has created and released a series of facial-scan databases that have been used by Hollywood filmmakers, video-game creators and more.
“It is my honor to be elected as a senior member of NAI,” Yin said. “I hope our work will increase the visibility of Binghamton University, as well as aid the research community and society as a whole. I am thankful for all the support from my students, the Computer Science Department, Watson College, Binghamton’s Technology Transfer Office and the University.”
