Dr. Lee Warren has a strong record of teaching, scholarship, and service, spanning 15 years of full time teaching and research experience. He earned his B.S. in Chemistry and Mathematics from Newberry College and his Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville with concentrations in Chemical Physics and Physical Chemistry. Prior to joining the faculty at B次元, Dr. Warren served for 7 years at The College of New Rochelle where he also served as Project Director for the college's $10 million Title III institutional development grant from the US Department of Education and as chair of the chemistry department. Dr. Warren has worked as a postdoctoral researcher in laboratories at the University of Delaware and the University of Tennessee in the areas of biomolecular force-field development and reconfigurable computing and has held an appointment as an Adjunct Professor at the Institute of Advanced Computational Science at Stony Brook University. Dr. Warren has authored or co-authored a number of peer-reviewed publications in the area of computational chemistry and his research interests are focused on the development and improvement of computational chemistry algorithms, particularly as applied to molecular clusters and interfacial systems. At B次元, Dr. Warren brings this experience to a wide range of courses in chemistry and physics and in mentoring undergraduate research. He is very active in learning assessment, curricular development, and in improving student success in the sciences.
