Professor, Engineering Office Location: Bonilla Science Hall, Room 307 Phone: (210) 829-3972 Email: ande@uiwtx.eduDr. Sreedevi Ande is a Professor and former Department Chair at the Department of Engineering, Computing and Cybersecurity, University of Incarnate Word. She earned her Master’s Degree in Civil Engineering and Doctorate Degree in Materials Engineering and Science from South Dakota School of Mines and Technology and completed her Post Doctoral Study at Western Kentucky University. She has over 20 years of teaching experience in Engineering. She is a Registered Professional Engineer in the State of Michigan.
Dr. Ande’s research interests are primarily in the area of environmental engineering and science, with a strong emphasis on contamination and remediation, and materials characterization. Her interdisciplinary research has contributed to advancing the understanding of clot formation and the development of antithrombogenic coatings for extracorporeal life support systems. Dr. Ande has collaborated extensively on projects involving scanning electron microscopy (SEM), integrating advanced analytical techniques with engineering applications. Her research has been published in peer-reviewed journals such as Bio-protocol and the ASAIO Journal and presented at leading conferences, including the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE).
During her tenure as Department Chair, Dr. Sreedevi Ande led a wide range of initiatives that strengthened academic operations, faculty engagement and program development. She worked closely with faculty to schedule courses, hired and trained adjunct instructors, reviewed credentials and maintained regular communication with adjunct faculty. She formed and led search committees for key hires, including a part-time Computer Lab Technician and student assistants to support network maintenance. Dr. Ande played a pivotal role in curriculum development, working closely with ENGR, CIS, and CSEC faculty on program assessments, course proposal submissions and the development of two new degree programs: the Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering and the Bachelor of Science in Mechatronics Engineering. Her leadership extended to budget management, equipment acquisition and planning ABET trainings. Additionally, Dr. Ande initiated the CIS/CSEC Industrial Advisory Board (IAB) and ENGR IAB meetings during her tenure, further strengthening industry-academic collaboration across programs. Her efforts reflect a deep commitment to academic excellence, inclusive leadership and continuous improvement across engineering and computing disciplines.
