The winners of the 2019 IMPACT Student Choice Awards for Instructor and Teaching Assistant (TA) of the Year were announced at the annual MSE Dinner Dance – Buckyball on January 25, 2019.
Selected by the undergraduate student body “for dedication and excellence in teaching,” the 2019 awardees were:
Prof. Kinnor Chattopadhya – Instructor of the Year
Jak Li – Teaching Assistant of the Year
The annual IMPACT Student Choice Award makes reference to both materials testing and the influential effect of professional dedication and excellence.
The awardees received a framed certificate encased with two distinct samples of impact testing from the ballistics experiment conducted in MSE 101, courtesy of current instructor, Dr. Scott Ramsay. A plaque with each year’s awardees engraved on individual plates will also be on display in the Department.
Congratulations and thank you!
