Zeid Kootbally and George Syrmos with the OTA plaque

The Outstanding Teaching Award (OTA) recognizes excellence in teaching to individual faculty members in the Professional Master of Engineering and Graduate Certificate in Engineering programs. Each academic year, Maryland Applied Graduate Engineering recognizes one instructor with our Outstanding Teacher Award. This award is based on course evaluations submitted by our students.

This year's OTA recipient is Robotics lecturer Zeid Kootbally. Dr. Kootbally received a plaque from Dr. George Syrmos and a monetary gift as a token of MAGE's appreciation. He previously won the award in 2022 and 2023, making this the third time he has won the award.
