Congratulations to Professor Michael Grant who has been selected to receive the School of Aeronautics and Astronautics Elmer F. Bruhn Award for 2015.

The Bruhn teaching award is presented annually to an Outstanding Teacher in the School of Aeronautics & Astronautics. The selection is through a vote by AAE's sophomores, juniors, and seniors for excellence in teaching and is made possible by the interest and generosity of friends and alumni of the school. Our school is extremely grateful to have great teachers like Professor Grant who care so much about our students’ learning and do so much to make learning fun, exciting, and rewarding for students.

Dr. Tom Shih, Head and Professor of the School of AAE notes, "Providing our students with the very best education is something that each of our faculty seeks diligently to do as individuals in teaching and learning in the classroom, and as a collective in the continuous improvement of our curriculum and the overall education that we provide to our students.  As head, I am deeply grateful to our faculty who has so much passion and dedication in the education of our students."

Several other outstanding faculty members were also nominated to receive this year’s Bruhn Award. In order of the votes received, the next four after Professor Grant are as follows: Professors Kathleen Howell, James Longuski, Alina Alexeenko, and William Crossley.  Professors Dominick Andrisani and Karen Marais, who won the Bruhn award during the past two years, were not eligible in the voting.

Congratulations to all for this recognition of their dedication to teaching and their efforts to provide the best possible education for School of AAE students.
