Rosalind Ann Archer is a New Zealand academic. She is currently Head of the School of Engineering and Built Environment at Griffith University.[1]

Academic career

After a 2000 PhD titled 'Computing flow and pressure transients in heterogeneous media using boundary element methods' at Stanford University, Archer moved to Texas A&M University and then to the University of Auckland in 2002, rising to full professor in 2013.[2][3] In 2013 she also became head of the University of Auckland's Department of Engineering Science.[2] She held the Mercury / Mighty River Power Chair in Geothermal Reservoir Engineering from 2013 to 2018.[2]

She won the Society of Petroleum Engineers Regional Distinguished Achievement Award for Petroleum Engineering Faculty (Asia Pacific Region) in 2011, and was the first New Zealand-based engineer to be awarded the position of "distinguished member" of the Society of Petroleum Engineers in 2015. In 2016, she won the Deloitte Energy Engineer of the Year award.[3] She is a Fellow of Engineering NZ[4] was elected deputy president of that organisation in 2020.[5] In March 2021, she was elected president of Engineering New Zealand.[6] In December 2021, Rosalind took up a new role as Head of the School of Engineering and Built Environment at Griffith University in Queensland.[7]
