Outstanding Faculty Advisor Award Recipient 2005-06


The Outstanding Faculty Advisor Award was developed to recognize outstanding achievement by a faculty member in the area of student advising. Nominations were solicited from faculty, staff, and students across campus. A subcommittee of the Advising Council reviewed the applications.

“Dr. Taufik is great at giving advice and helping his students make important life decisions, such as choosing a career path that he knows we will enjoy and make us happy. He gives all his students confidence, which makes all of us want to do well and succeed in anything and everything we put our minds to."

“Not only is Dr. Taufik a great professor, he is also a great advisor in the Power Engineering Society, a dedicated senior project advisor, and a dependable faculty advisor. Since Dr. Taufik has such a warm, friendly, understanding, and inviting personality, I never felt intimidated to ask him questions. There is no way I can thank him enough for all the help he has given me with school and with jobs.”

“As my advisor, Dr. Taufik encouraged me to enter my senior project in the CSU Annual Student Research Competition. Despite my initial reluctance, he convinced me to compete in order to overcome an aversion to public speaking. He stayed after hours and sat in as my audience for countless run-throughs of the presentation. His dedication to my success paid off with a first place prize in the Undergraduate Engineering and Computer Science Category.”
