George D. Catalano is a Distinguished Service Professor of Biomedical Engineering emeritus at the State University of New York at Binghamton. He holds joint appointments in the Departments of Mechanical Engineering and Biomedical.  Dr. Catalano earned Doctor of Philosophy and Master of Science degrees in aerospace engineering at the University of Virginia and a Bachelor of Science degree, also in aerospace engineering, at Louisiana State University. Prior to his present position, he served on the faculty at the Air Force Institute of Technology, Wright State University, Louisiana State University, and the United States Military Academy at West Point. He also served as a visiting scholar at the Polytechnic in Turin, Italy and at the Technical Institute in Erlangen, Germany. Dr. Catalano’s career-long work in promoting peace and social justice in engineering was recently recognized in his selection as a 2022 winner of Constellation Prize which recognizes and promotes engineering for environmental protection, social justice, human rights, and peace.  Dr. Catalano’s research interests include turbulent fluid flows, low and high-speed aerodynamics and experimental methods in physics, modeling ecosystems, as well as learning strategies and paradigms, engineering ethics, engineering design, and environmental ethics. He is listed in the Philosopher’s Index for his published work in animal rights and environmental ethics. Dr. Catalano has authored over 175 technical and educational publications, eight books and has twice been selected as a Fulbright Scholar in recognition of his work in turbulent fluid mechanics.
