Annick Dewald

Dr. Annick Dewald is a founding faculty member at Greenway College.

She earned her undergraduate degree in engineering from Smith College and a PhD from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where her research explored systems engineering, solar-electric aircraft design, multidisciplinary optimization, and remote sensing for climate monitoring. Annick brings industry experience from Boeing Research & Technology and electra.aero, an electric aircraft startup, where she built on her dissertation work by leading a team of undergraduate interns to manufacture and flight-test a demonstrator vehicle for the Stratospheric Airborne Climate Observatory System (SACOS).

Greenway College is developing a new model of engineering education that combines two years of in-person, hands-on, project-based learning with two years of faculty-supported, paid, work-integrated learning at engineering companies. The program is designed to help students graduate debt-free while gaining professional skills and experience alongside traditional engineering design and technical knowledge. Annick has joined Olin as a Visiting Assistant Professor of Engineering to learn from its unique project-based, design-focused curriculum and apply those insights to Greenway’s future curriculum development, to build a scalable, impactful engineering program.
