His academic background and professional skills allows him to teach a range of courses across three different departments in the school of engineering. This is a rare and uncommon achievement. Within his short time at Morgan, he has made contributions in teaching both undergraduate and graduate courses. He has been uniquely credited for his inspirational mentoring activities and educat- ing underrepresented minority students. Through his teaching and mentoring at Morgan State University he plays a critical role in educating the next generation of underrepresented minority students, especially African-American

Detailed review of the notes andtexts used by previous instructors, and detailed discussion, produced some common guidance:1. Absenteeism was a major cause for student demoralization. Depending on their sense of responsibility was insufficient: they had to be told that as part of an engineering organization, they were expected to show up on time, every day. Enforcing this was still a problem.2. Introduce more visuals, classroom demonstrations of technology, and ndustry contact to the class: this motivated many students.3.
