Four faculty members from the Georgia Tech School of Electrical and Computer Engineering will receive the Class of 1940 Course Survey Teaching Effectiveness Award, which is sponsored by the Center for the Enhancement of Teaching and Learning (CETL). The faculty members include:

Muhannad Bakir

John D. Cressler

Magnus Egerstedt

Faramarz Fekri

The Class of 1940 distinction is one of several awards made annually by CETL to instructors of small and large classes. It is based on the Course Instructor Opinion Surveys that were administered in the fall 2014 and spring 2015 semesters. A high response rate (85 percent of greater) and a near-perfect evaluation score are required for consideration.

Bakir, Cressler, Egerstedt, and Fekri will be formally recognized when CETL holds its annual Celebrating Teaching Day on March 15.
