2) Teaching Statement

  • I enjoy teaching both undergraduate and graduate courses. At Texas State, I consistently receive excellent student teaching evaluations, as well as being awarded an honorary certificate “Favorite Professor” by The Alfred H. Nolle Chapter of the Alpha Chi National College Honor Society.
  • Integrating research with education motivates undergraduate students to develop their research curiosity in their early college period. More than 20 undergraduate students have participated in my research team. This includes Joe Alex Granado who received the best student paper in 20210 awarded by American Society for Quality, Saul Villarreal won 1st place poster completion in the 2011 HENAAC conference, and Miguel Huerta and Jett Piechota, both won 3rd place in the Southwest Energy Science & Engineering Symposium in 2012.
  • Under my supervision, ten undergraduate students turned their capstone design projects into three conference papers published in 2013 and 2015 IISE conference, and 2018 IEEE GreenTech Conference. The 2013 IISE paper entered the final list of best student paper competition.
