ACADEMIC YEAR 2017-18
Our Vision
Western Connecticut State University
will be widely recognized as a premier
public university with outstanding

a meaningful way.
1CONGRATULATIONS
Dr. Edwin M. Wong
Professor
Biological & Environmental Sciences Department
2018 Provost’s Award for Teaching
Ed earned a B.S. in biochemistry from the University of Maryland and a Ph.D.
in molecular, cellular, and developmental biology from Indiana University.
Among his former academic positions was a three-year stint as a Foreign
Expert teaching (in English) molecular biology to mainland Chinese students
at Shandong University. Since joining the faculty of WCSU in 1999, he has
been teaching biology for non-majors, general biology, and upper-level
molecular genetics as well as exploring teaching technologies. His research
involves using molecular techniques to investigate interesting questions, in
particular, about environmental microorganisms and invasive species which
has benefited the Candlewood Lake communities. His efforts on behalf of the
campus community have included longtime service as the advisor for the
Biology Club. And on a personal note, this semester every member of his
family will be at WCSU—his wife Mona is finishing the MS in Nursing; his son
Daniel is a senior majoring in biochemistry; and his daughter Samantha is in
her first year in the pre-nursing program.
