Terri R. Norton is a recent addition to the UNO Faculty, as of Fall 2007. Before her appointment she was a member of the technical staff in the Structural Dynamics Department at The Aerospace Corporation. She has also served as a visiting professor with the Department of Construction Engineering Technology at Florida A&M University. And was a past guest lecturer with the Architectural Engineering Department at UNL.
Norton's past research has focused on the effects that natural hazards have on civil structures. She has been a field mission investigator evaluating the 2002 Molise Earthquake in Italy, a research ambassador at the University of Tokyo, and a research assistant at the Florida A&M University-Florida State University College of Engineering in the Wind Hazard and Earthquake Engineering Lab.
Her other interests involve mentoring the youth in the areas of math and science. She has been a past mentor for the Ernest E. Just Marine Biology Program and the AMAN Inc. International Science and Discovery, Saturday Science Academy (SSA). The SSA is designed to encourage the career paths of secondary school students who have been traditionally underrepresented in science and technology fields.
