Eric Anderson

Eric Anderson is a Lecturer (Academic General Faculty, Teaching Track) at the University of Virginia, with offices in Wilsdorf Hall (Room 302) and a lab in Room 301. His contact information includes email ewa3a@virginia.edu and phone (434) 924-6276.

His research focuses on two primary areas:

• Developing and validating chemical process models using commercial software, emphasizing real-world data verification
• Troubleshooting chemical production systems via statistical analysis (Six Sigma), root cause methodologies (Kepner-Tregoe), and inventive problem-solving frameworks (USIT/Triz)

His teaching philosophy centers on integrating chemical engineering principles—thermodynamics, transport phenomena, and unit operations—into capstone design courses that bridge theory and practical application.

Education background includes:

• B.S. in Chemical Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (1979)
• M.S. in Chemical Engineering Practice, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (1984)
