The Faculty of Engineering has an exceptional mix of professors and instructors. In addition to their leading research skills and reputation, they are an excellent example of the overall quality and caliber of the faculty.

Each year, undergraduate students within the faculty recognize their top professors in each discipline by voting on the Outstanding Teaching Awards.

Awards are voted upon based on a variety of criteria such as innovative learning approaches, effective use of technology and overall quality of teaching.

For Civil Engineering professor, Dr. Hany El Naggar, one of the key elements he tries to incorporate in the classroom is teamwork and the opportunity to tackle real life problems.

鈥淚t鈥檚 not all theory. It鈥檚 how we utilize the theory to achieve the best designs,鈥� he says. 鈥淚 think the thing the students like is that I care about them and I don鈥檛 just go to the classroom with pre-solved problems. The students and I solve them together.鈥�
