Larry W. Mays has been a Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Arizona State
<br />University since August 1989. He served as Chair of the Department from August 1989 until July
<br />1996. Prior to that he was Director of the Center for Research in Water Resources and holder of an
<br />Engineering Foundation Endowed Professorship at The University of Texas at Austin, where he
<br />was on the faculty since 1976. Prior to that, he was a graduate research assistant and then a
<br />Visiting Research Assistant Professor at the Dr. Mays has been very active in research and
<br />teaching in the areas of hydrology, hydraulics and water resource systems analysis. In addition, he
<br />has served as a consultant in these areas to various government agencies and industries and has
<br />served in several litigations concerning flooding. He is a registered professional engineer in seven
<br />states, a registered professional hydrologist, a member of several professional associations, and is
<br />listed in several biographies.
