He also received the Engineeringdepartment’s “Top 5% Teaching Award” in fall 2013. His average instructor rating is of 4.7 outof 5, making him one of the highest rated professors at the engineering college. His role as thefaculty associate mentor and director of the class would be to keep the new CCA class on trackto the new changes. He redesigned the class format as seen in the value based sector in Figure 2as well as implemented a student mentor.
