Dr Paul Hagan has over thirty years experience spanning roles in academia and industry – in teaching, research, operations and management roles. In 1998 he was appointed a faculty member in the School of Mining Engineering at UNSW and has been a member of various university, faculty and school committees. In 2001 he was appointed the Director – Undergraduate Studies and since 2003 he has played an important role in developing the new Mining Education Australia (MEA) program being the only remaining founding member on the Program Leaders Committee, the steering committee responsible for academic standards and procedures, curriculum development and, the subsequent implementation and on-going co-ordination of courses in the MEA program. At the course level, he also played a key role in developing the activity-based courses covering mine planning, mine feasibility projects, rock breakage, surface mining and the industry research project/Honours project. He also has a keen interest in developing the report writing abilities of undergraduate engineers with involvement in several projects that eventuated in a citation from the Carrick Institute for outstanding contribution to student academic literacy. Paul is also a co-author of the “Report Writing Guide” which is the standard reference for the MEA program.
