Tiller heads the Office of International Affairs, whose main concern is the development of academic programs in foreign countries. The UH now directs programs, consisting of consultative activities, administration reform, projects, and professional and student exchange at universities in India, Costa Rica, Ecuador, and Brazil. Dr. Tiller's office works in cooperation with the UH Committee on International Affairs, which acts as an advisory body. Dr. Tiller has been honored recently by the naming of a chemical engineering laboratory at the University of Guayaquil in Ecuador as the "F. M. Tiller Unit Operations Lab." He is currently serving as the chairman of the Engineers' Joint Council Commission on Rural Industrial Development. The Office of Research, directed by Joseph R. Crump, administers and coordinates all University research projects. Its main activity is the handling of contracts and the accounting of funds for research purposes. Within the last ten years, research funding has grown at a ratio of 100 to 1 and, at present, the University handles about $2,000,000 in grants annually. DR. FRANK M. TILLER JOSEPH R. CRUMP 31 |
