Andrew U. Meyer received the Ph.D. in electrical engineering from Northwestern University in 1961. Between 1961 and 1965 he was a Member of the Technical Staff at Bell Laboratories at Whippany, New Jersey, where he was engaged in research on automatic control problems pertaining to satellite attitude control and missile autopilots. Prior to his graduate studies, between 1950 and 1957, he held engineering positions with Associated Research, Inc., Sun Electric Corporation and Armour Research Foundation of Illinois Institute of Technology, all in Chicago, Illinois.

In 1965, Dr. Meyer joined the Electrical Engineering Department of New Jersey Institute of Technology, Newark, New Jersey, as an Associate Professor, became a Professor in 1968 and Professor Emeritus in 2002. During the academic year 1969-1970, he was a Visiting Professor at Middle East Technical University, Ankara, Turkey. Dr. Meyer's research interests involve automatic control theory and its applications, with emphasis on biomedical system dynamics. Since 1972 he is also on the adjunct research faculty of the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey, since 1980 as an Adjunct Research Professor in the Department of Ophthalmology. His publications include co-authorship (with Jay C. Hsu) of the book "Modern Control Principles and Applications", McGraw-Hill 1968.
