Edward Friedman obtained an undergraduate degree in Physics from MIT in 1957 and a PhD in Physics from Columbia University in 1963. He received an Honorary Doctorate of Mathematics from Sofia University in Bulgaria in 2000 and served as director of a program to establish an indigenous college of engineering at Kabul University in Afghanistan (1970-1973). He was awarded an Education Medal from the King of Afghanistan (1973). At Stevens Institute of Technology in Hoboken, NJ, USA, he served as Professor of Physics (1963-1973), Dean of the College (1973-1986) and became Director of an award-winning program on applications of computers for secondary school mathematics and science education (1986-2004). He is currently a Trustee at the American University in Bulgaria from 2017.
