Congratulations to Professors' Paul Blowers and Armin Sorooshian - Selected as Arizona Engineering Faculty Fellows for Teaching

With great pleasure I would like to inform you that Paul and Armin were selected as fellows for the Arizona Engineering Faculty Fellows for Teaching. Please join me in congratulating them for their achievement.

Paul was awarded a fellow for a 1 year term and Armin was awarded a fellow for a 3 year term.  There are only 8 such fellow slots in the college so our department did exceptionally well to have been able to receive two of the fellows given there are only 9 departments in the college.

Congratulations to Professor Eduardo Sáez, for his induction to Distinguished Professor. 

     

Con
gratulations to Paul Blowers

Paul won the Arizona State 2011 Professor of the year award.

The U.S. Professors of the Year Awards Program, created in 1981,
is the only national initiative specifically designed to recognize excellence in undergraduate teac
hing and mentoring.

This year’s U.S. Professors of the Year award winners were selected from a pool of nearly 300 nominees. Judges selected national and state winners based on four criteria: impact on and involvement with undergraduate students; scholarly approach to teaching and learning; contributions to undergraduate education in the institution, community and profession; and support from colleagues and current and former students.
