Two Texas A&M University construction science professors, Ifte Choudhury and Paul Woods, received national commendation at the April 2-5 Associated Schools of Construction annual conference at Auburn University.
Choudhury, associate professor and coordinator of the master’s program in construction management at Texas A&M’s College of Architecture, received the ASC’s Outstanding Educator Award. The honor recognizes significant contributions to construction education, excellence in teaching, service to the ASC and dedication to the construction profession.
Woods, associate professor in construction science, received the ASC’s Outstanding Researcher Award, which recognizes significant contributions to the dissemination of scholarly work within the ASC community.
“Paul has consistently disseminated the work of his many graduate students,” said associate construction science professor Richard Burt in his letter nominating Woods for the award. Burt is holder of the James C. Smith CIAC professorship and coordinator of Texas A&M’s undergraduate construction science program.
“I believe Paul has made an outstanding contribution to the dissemination of scholarly work both through his own research, but more importantly, through his mentorship of new scholars.”
The Associated Schools of Construction is the professional association for the development and advancement of construction education.
