Dr. Laleh Najafizadeh has received the Engineering Governing Council (EGC) Students' Professor of the Year Award! 

Rutgers SOE students selected only one professor from each department who best exemplified the SOE mission of “Education, Research, and Service” in the 2024-2025 academic year for the EGC Students' Professor of the Year Award. The award is decided based on student nominations and voting for each department.

We are very proud of Laleh receiving this award voted by the students. Congratulations to Laleh on this well-deserved award!

We are delighted to announce and congratulate Dr. Shirin Jalali, Dr. Hang Liu, and Dr. Jorge Ortiz on their well-deserved tenure and promotion to the rank of Associate Professor. This important milestone is a reflection of their outstanding achievements in research, teaching, and service.
