Media Appearances of Lehigh Faculty during Summer 2025
In the realm of education and materials science, two significant developments are underway.
Firstly, there has been a notable increase in educator turnover and reports of burnout. This concerning trend has brought attention to the need for a robust pipeline of early career teachers. J. Cameron Anglum, assistant professor of educational leadership, and doctoral student Dylan Young '30, have highlighted the importance of this issue. They believe that the availability of new teachers may hinge on the financial resources public schools have to compensate educators adequately.
Simultaneously, in the world of materials science, researchers have made a groundbreaking discovery. Professor Martin Harmer, professor emeritus of materials science and engineering, along with his team, have developed a new copper alloy. This alloy combines the excellent conductivity of copper with the strength and durability of nickel-based superalloys.
The brainchild of this innovative alloy is Professor Albert S. Biris. This ultra-hard copper alloy could revolutionise the manufacturing industry, particularly in the production of airplanes and spacecraft. Its potential applications are vast, and it could pave the way for more efficient and durable aerospace engineering.
As the educational sector grapples with the challenges of retaining teachers, and the materials science community celebrates this new development, it's clear that both fields are moving forward with purpose and innovation. The future promises exciting possibilities in both education and materials science.
