Judith “Judy”
Marie Callicott Vance was born in 1955 in LaCrosse, Wisconsin.
She received her B.S. (1980), M.S. (1986), and Ph.D (1992) in
Mechanical Engineering from Iowa State University. After
graduation, Dr. Vance was hired as a Mechanical Engineer
(1979-1984) at the John Deere Des Moines Works in Ankeny, Iowa.
Dr. Vance then took the position of Adjunct Instructor
(1984-1987) in the Division of Engineering Fundamentals and
Multidisciplinary Design at Iowa State University and was later
promoted to Assistant Professor (1987-1992) of the department.
When the Division of Engineering Fundamentals and
Multidisciplinary Design was dissolved, Dr. Vance became an
Assistant Professor (1992-1997) of Mechanical Engineering. She
was promoted to Associate Professor (1997-2003) and Professor
(2003-present). Dr. Vance was also chosen to be Chair
(2003-present) of the Department of Mechanical Engineering. She
is also a faculty fellow at Iowa State University’s Virtual
Reality Applications Center.
Dr. Vance’s
research interests lie primarily in the realm of virtual reality
design applications. She has studied virtual reality
applications in mechanical design, numerical methods that
facilitate interactive design, and spatial mechanism design.
Dr. Vance is
associated with several professional organizations. She is a
member of Women in Engineering Leadership Institute, Society of
Women Engineers, American Society of Mechanical Engineers,
Society of Manufacturing Engineers, American Society for
Engineering Education, Tau Beta Pi, and Sigma Xi. Dr. Vance is
also involved with women in science and engineering issues on
the Iowa State campus. |
