About Eric Money

I am currently Director of Education in the Center for Geospatial Analytics in the College of Natural Resources at North Carolina State University. My research and professional experience centers on developing and administering quality educational programs and student services, pedagogical advances in place-based education and geospatial curriculum development at all levels, increasing K-12 students interest in STEM education and careers, in addition to environmental decision-making under uncertainty and examining the link between the environment and public health. I employ tools, such as geospatial analysis, geostatistics, and probabilistic inference in applied settings to improve our understanding of environmental systems and provide guidance to make more informed environmental decisions as it relates to environmental health and public health risk and exposure. I have several years experience working in environmental and health consulting as well as in academic settings in administrative, research, teaching, and mentor capacities, with both undergraduates and graduate students. I also have a strong interest in research and academic administration, along with research and academic mentorship and strategic planning.Academic Administration Specialties:Education program evaluation and assessmentAcademic Strategic PlanningStudent Information Systems Data Analytics and VisualizationStudent services and academic affairsProfessional DevelopmentGeospatial/GIS Education and PedagogyInquiry-based Learning and PedagogyDistance Education/Online Pedagogy in GISUndergraduate research initiativesAdmissions, academic, and research advising and mentorshipResearch Specialties:Geospatial education pedagogyPublic Health Risk Assessment Environmental Decision AnalysisSpatial Environmental EpidemiologyGeospatial AnalyticsGeographic Information Systems for Environmental and Public Health ApplicationsWater Quality Modeling & MappingGeostatistical TechniquesBayesian NetworksEnvironmental Implications of NanotechnologyRisk Assessment, Ranking, and PrioritizationRisk Decision Support
