Bio summary

Professor Hjelmstad has been a catalyzing force within the Fulton Schools, as well as nationally, in engineering education and research. His ability to engage, challenge and excite undergraduate students with his innovative curricula and courses has had a profound impact on undergraduate students. He has completely revamped the sophomore-level mechanics courses (CEE 210, CEE 212, and CEE 213) through an effort he calls “The Mechanics Project,” which “represents nothing short of a revolution in teaching.”
