Irving Miller - CFP Profile



Irving F. Miller

I was born in 1934, in New York City, and educated at New York University, Purdue University, and the University of Michigan. I taught and administered programs in chemical engineering and biomedical engineering for almost 40 years at Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn, University of Illinois at Chicago, and the University of Akron. I am the author of over 80 refereed articles and book chapters in science and engineering, over 200 abstracts and presentations, have edited and translated several monographs, and have received numerous science and engineering grants and awards. A casual poet for most of my life, I began writing seriously in 1995. Since my retirement from engineering education in 2000, my work has appeared in journals and chapbooks, as well as on several websites. My poems are currently under review by several journals.
