The Midwest Section of the American Society of Engineering Educators has named Ed Clausen, professor of chemical engineering, as its 2011 Outstanding Teacher.
Clausen, holder of the Ray C. Adam Endowed Chair in Chemical Engineering, has been teaching in the Ralph E. Martin department of chemical engineering since 198, and he is currently the director of the honors program in the College of Engineering.
Department head Tom Spicer explained that Clausen’s generous nature and rapport with students make him an outstanding teacher.
Congratulations, Dr. Clausen! You are an amazing teacher that was always there to give us guidance through the times that we thought we would never make it through-like tests that lasted for hours and hours. Keep molding the minds of young engineers in the making!
