Sullivan-Carlson Award
Description
-
The Engineering Excellence Fund committee recognizes one professor each year who makes an extra effort to involve students in hands-on, engaged, learning. This may take place through innovative lecture classes, extraordinary lab classes, or through research experiences such as independent study. Nominations are sought exclusively from students and the EEF student committee selects the final winner. We are currently asking students to nominate outstanding professors for the 2007-2008 award. You do not need to have taken a class this semester (or at all) with a professor to nominate him or her, but you should have personal experience with her or him. Please write a short (1 page at most) nomination about the professor you want to nominate, emphasizing how this professor embodies the following qualities:
- 2008 - Dan Connors, ECE
- 2006 - Dirk Grunwald, CS
- 2005 - Mike Eisenberg, CS
- 2004 - Daria Kotys-Schwartz, ME
- 2003 - Peter Mathys, ECEN
- 2002 - Clayton Lewis, CS
- 2001 - Mike Brandemuehl, CEAE
- 2000 - Ken Gall, ME
- 1999 - Janet deGrazia, ChE/ME
- 1998 - Dave Clough, ChE
-Employs hands-on learning in his or her teaching
-Actively engages students
-Has an impact beyond the classroom
The winning professor will be announced at the ITLL Design Expo in the spring of 2008, and will receive a $1,000 performance award. Nominations will be solicited each semester and the prize will be awarded each spring. To submit your nomination, please send an email with "Sullivan-Carlson Award" in the subject line to eef@colorado.edu.
