Amelito Enriquez Recognized with
Outstanding Teaching Award
Amelito Enriquez, Ph.D., Cañada
Professor of Engineering and Mathematics, was recently recognized with the 2016
American Society for Engineering Education Pacific Southwest Section
Outstanding (ASEE PSW) Teaching Award. This is the first time that a community
college instructor received the award. Additionally, the award qualifies
Professor Enriquez to compete for the national teaching award next year. Professor
Enriquez was nominated by Dr. Wenshen Pong, Director of the San Francisco State
University School of Engineering and letters of support were provided by Cañada
College Engineering graduates and fellow colleagues, community college
engineering faculty.
Professor Enriquez was recognized during
the awards banquet of the 84th Annual American Society for
Engineering Education Pacific Southwest Conference, which was held at Cal Poly
Pomona on April 21-23. The Pacific Southwest section covers California, Hawaii,
Nevada, and Arizona. This award was given by each ASEE section and focused on
outstanding classroom performance, recognized teachers of engineering and
engineering technology students and served as an incentive to make further
significant contributions to teaching. Congratulations,
Professor Enriquez!
