I am honored to be selected as the inaugural Cook Teaching Fellow, as it provides an opportunity to further pursue my passion for teaching and my deep commitment to student success. This fellowship will offer direction and support as I continue to explore innovative strategies that enhance learning and engagement.

Earning the prestigious title of a Cook Teaching Fellow comes with a commitment and responsibilities that we are confident our chosen candidate will embrace. The goal of the College of Engineering’s Faculty Teaching Fellows Program, led by the college’s Engineering and Computing Education Core (ECEC), is to provide strategic professional development for our faculty with a focus on growing excellence in teaching and learning. This distinguished title is awarded for one year and is renewable contingent upon meeting the requirements for renewal each year. The Teaching Fellow title recognizes those faculty in the college who are committed to continuously working towards teaching excellence. The Cook Teaching Fellow’s commitment to the program extends beyond the yearly renewal requirements and they are expected to commit to the program for the next four years.
