Professional Career

I spent the majority of my professional career in industry. I spent brief periods with Bell Helicopter and General Dynamics, before joining Texas Instruments. The majority of my working career was spent at TI, from 1973 through 1998, with a brief 19-month hiatus in the middle to work for a startup that was partially owned by TI (1983 to 1985). On retirement from TI in 1998, I joined the University of Texas at Dallas as a Senior Lecturer, and have been a member of the faculty since that time. Although I received my Ph. D. in ion cyclotron wave propagation in an ionized gas (for the purpose of heating a fusion plasma), I immediately entered into a position as a digital design engineer upon graduation, and have spent most of my career in designing or supervising the design of digital and computer systems, or in related staff positions.

Pomara, Dodge Recognized as Outstanding Teachers at UT Dallas

Two educators at the University of Texas at Dallas — Dr. John Pomara and Dr. Nathan Dodge — have been selected as outstanding teachers for the 2006-2007 academic year.

Pomara, an associate professor in the School of Arts and Humanities, will receive the Chancellor’s Council Award, which is provided annually by The University of Texas System to recognize excellence in teaching at each of the system’s nine general academic institutions.  Dodge, a senior lecturer in the Erik Jonsson School of Engineering and Computer Science, has been selected for the newly created President’s Outstanding Teaching Award, established this year by UT Dallas President David E. Daniel to recognize the contributions of non-tenure track faculty.
