Faculty and instructors
Logan Maley
I have specialized in fluid dynamics and robotics. I’ve worked on academic projects with various industrial partners on explosion safety issues. In industry, I have worked in several fields focusing on integrated designs and specializing in combining mechanical design with computer control, robotics and automation.
Credentials:
Professional Engineer registered with EGBC
M.A.Sc., Mechanical Engineering, University of Ottawa
B.A.Sc., Mechanical Engineering, University of Ottawa
B.Sc., Computing Technology, University of Ottawa
Dr. Alvin Bergen
As a mechanical engineer, my areas of interest are closely related to by teaching duties in the MET department. I specializes in design of mechanical components and systems, dynamic analysis, manual and CNC machining, robotics, and energy systems. I am an avid power sports fan; if it has a motor and goes fast then I’m probably interested, and when it breaks I can usually fix it or build a better one.
Credentials:
PhD, Mechanical Engineering, UVic
Jonathan Laumer
Quincy DeWitt
I specialize in the structural design of vehicles and aircraft, vehicle suspension design, finite element analysis, and CNC machining. I've worked for Transport Canada Airworthiness, Spar Aviation, Western Star Trucks and as a consultant doing aviation and automotive engineering. I've been teaching at мÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¹Ù·½ÍøÕ¾ College since 2002.

Vlado Neykov
I completed a Master's in Mechanical Engineering 1987 from Technical University (TU) Sofia. I worked as assistant professor until 1994 at the same university, and moved to Canada in 2000. I worked as instructor at Centennial College Toronto Scarborough campus until 2005, when I joined мÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¹Ù·½ÍøÕ¾ College in September. In 2015, I completed a Master of Applied Science in materials characterization from UBCO. My areas of interest: engineering materials, manufacturing automation CAD design. Hobbies: art, astronomy, model making.
