Dr. Chih-Hao Chang’s research focuses on developing 2D/3D multifunctional nanostructures with novel physical properties and novel scalable nanomanufacturing techniques based on both “top-down” and “bottom-up” principles. Dr. Chang received his B.S. (2002) from the Georgia Institute of Technology and his M.S. (2004) and Ph.D. (2008) from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), all in Mechanical Engineering. From 2011 to 2019, he was a faculty at the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at North Carolina State University (NCSU). Dr. Chang received the Early Career Faculty Award from National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in 2012, the Ralph E. Powe Junior Faculty Award from the Oak Ridge Associated Universities (ORAU) in 2013, and the Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) in 2016. Dr. Chang is currently an Associate Professor in the Walker Department of Mechanical Engineering and holds the Temple Foundation Endowed Teaching Fellowship in Engineering #1 at the University of Texas at Austin.
