Alumnus Richard Stamper, assistant professor of mechanical engineering at Rose-Hulman, is one of the nation’s outstanding new teachers, according to the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE). Stamper, a 1985 mechanical engineering graduate, has been selected as the recipient of a national ASEE award presented annually to faculty who have shown a strong commitment to mechanics education. Mechanics education deals with the interactions between force, motion, and stress in machines, structures and fluids. No more than three recipients are selected each year for the Ferdinand Beer and E. Russell Johnston Outstanding New Mechanics Educator Award. To be eligible, a nominee must have less than five years teaching experience. Stamper was nominated by colleagues at Rose-Hulman. He received the honor at the ASEE annual conference and exposition June 26 in Albuquerque, N.M. Stamper won teaching awards last year from Rose-Hulman’s Triangle fraternity and The Rose Thorn student newspaper. He received his doctorate from the University of Maryland and joined the Rose-Hulman faculty in 1998 after teaching at Auburn University.
