Posted on by

The Ohio State University’s Alumni Award for Distinguished Teaching was established during the 1959-60 academic year and is one of the university’s most prestigious teaching awards. Ten faculty members were recently honored with the award, including Prof. Shirley Yu. The honorees were notified of their awards through surprise announcements led by senior university leaders.

“Using evidence-based practices to create engaging, supportive and challenging courses in face-to-face, hybrid and online formats, Shirley L. Yu is recognized as an outstanding educator who has made a lasting impact on her students. Beyond the classroom, Yu is a generous mentor to students and alumni across EHE and beyond. She leads an active research laboratory and directs the Graduate Certificate in College and University Teaching(opens in new window). Her expertise was also formally recognized with her college’s Distinguished Teaching Award in 2018.”

How is a collection of electrons like a society? Nandini Trivedi, professor of physics in the CEM, says in both cases, individuals act differently in a group than they do alone. She studies these interactions in electrons, with an eye to their beneficial practical applications, such as the dissipationless transmission of electricity through superconductivity.

[UMAAC] Social for South Asians in Astronomy and Physics

Posted on by

Astronomy and Physics Departments,

I’m the chair of UMAAC, the undergraduate majors of astronomy and astrophysics committee. We plan events and seek to improve the climate and overall experience of astronomy undergraduates.

I’m reaching out to gauge interest about a social for South Asians in astronomy/physics. This would be an informal event geared towards connecting South Asian undergraduate, graduate students, and faculty.

Feel free to reach out to me (admane.1@buckeyemail.osu.edu) or co-chair Avidaan Srivastava (srivastava.172@osu.edu) for any questions and/or to confirm your interest or support for this social.

Thank you!
