Krishani Abeysekera and Kumar Peeris won inauguration outstanding awards
April 2, 2009 | Posted by Bun Yue
Our computing programs are blessed with excellent award winning faculty members. For example, Dr. Feagin won the UHCL President Distinguished Research Award last year. Dr. Davari won the UHCL Distinguished Teaching in 1992. Drs. Boetticher and Al-Mubaid are recent finalists of the UHCL Piper Teaching Award. There are many others.
This list is growing even longer yesterday.
This year, UHCL adds the Outstanding Lecturer Award and Outstanding Adjunct Faculty Award to honor distinguished lecturers and adjunct faculty members. I am very pleased to announce that our computing programs are making history by winning both inauguration awards.
Ms. Krishani Abeysekera won the inauguration outstanding lecturer award. Many of you know her as the dedicated and friendly instructor of data structures and computer systems administration. Krishani is also a finalist of the UHCL Piper Award last year.
Mr. Kumar Peeris won the inauguration outstanding adjunct faculty award. He is the effective, helpful and reasonably demanding instructor of Java, Advanced Java and Web Application Development and has taught for us in the last 17 years.
Both of them received their B.S. and M.S. degrees from UHCL. I am not going to state their long lists of accomplishment here. Instead, I would encourage you to stop by their offices and congratulate them on winning these honorable awards so deservingly.
Congratulations, Krishani! Congratulations, Kumar!
(Krishani and Kumar received their awards from President Staples and Provost Stockton.)
