University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign

In Fall 2024, I am teaching AE 353 – Aerospace Control Systems, meeting on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, 11am-11:50am in 1302 Everitt Laboratory. The course syllabus is here, and the course website with relevant materials and announcements is on UIUC’s Canvas LMS. I am also an instructor for AE 497 – Independent Study. In Spring 2025, I will likely be teaching AE 555 – Multivariable Control Design.

In addition to my core instruction duties, I am currently involved in two projects on teaching innovation. I am a Principal Investigator of the Grade-GPT: Investigating the Success of ChatGPT at Completing Course Assignments project funded by the University’s Grants for Advancement of Teaching in Engineering program, and a Co-Principal Investigator on the Computational Tools for Dynamics and Control project funded by the University’s Strategic Instructional Innovations Program.

I am always happy to receive anonymous, or signed, feedback about my teaching. I am grateful for any comments and will do my best to consider incorporating them into my classes.
