Education

Inman received his Ph.D. from Michigan State University in Mechanical Engineering in 1980. He received his Master of Arts in Teaching Physics from Michigan State University in the Year 1975 and he Pursued Graduate Studies at Grand Valley State College in 1970. [5]

Research and career

Inman is currently working as Kelly Johnson Collegiate Professor at the University of Michigan in the Department of Aerospace Engineering. He is also an adjunct professor at the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in the Department of Mechanical Engineering and also a Brunel Chair in Intelligent Materials and Structures at the University of Bristol, United Kingdom. He started his career as an instructor (1970–1976) at Grand Rapids Educational Park Physics Department. After that, he worked as a graduate research assistant (1976–1978) at Michigan State University. He was a member of technical staff (1978) at Bell Laboratories, Interconnection Group. Again, he worked as an instructor (1978–1979) - Michigan State University.[ citation needed ] He joined as a graduate research assistant (1979–1980) at Michigan State University. He worked as an assistant professor (1980–1984) at the State University of New York in the Department of Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering. He was an associate professor (1984–1987) at the State University of New York in the Department of Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering. He joined as a director for Mechanical Systems Laboratory (1984–1992) at the State University of New York in the Department of Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering. He worked as an adjunct professor (1986–1990) in the Division of Applied Mathematics and also visiting professor (1987–1988) in the Division of Applied Mathematics. He joined as a professor (1987–1992) at the State University of New York in the Department of Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering. [6]

He worked as a professor and chairman (1989–1992) at the State University of New York in the department of Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering.
