David Carter has been named the next director of Engineering Extension at Kansas State University.

Carter previously served as the director of the Kansas Energy Program in Engineering Extension. He brings more than 35 years of experience in environmental management, regulatory interpretation and enforcement, and environmental and energy management assessments to the job. In addition to his work at the Kansas Energy Program, Carter also spent 10 years at the Pollution Prevention Institute, another Engineering Extension program.

"David brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to this vital leadership position," said Stacy Hutchinson, associate dean for research and graduate programs for the Carl R. Ice College of Engineering. "I am confident he will do great work to advance the mission of engineering extension, which is to bring engineering-related technical assistance, training and outreach to the citizens of Kansas."

Carter replaces Bruce Snead, who retired in June after a 41-year career with Engineering Extension.
