With 10 years experience at the University of Evansville, Michael Cullen loves what he does. "My colleagues and the students make what I do enjoyable. They challenge me every day. They are an inspiration to be around." "I came to UE from a larger school, where it was hard to get to know my students. At UE, because the class sizes are small, I am able to learn the students' strengths and weaknesses and provide one-on-one personal attention. At UE there is a desire to work together among the faculty, staff and students, and that makes it a good place to be." Professor Cullen teaches more than biology; he teaches skill sets. "Because the field of biology is changing rapidly, the most important skills I can teach my students are critical thinking and problem solving. By the time they graduate, the students know how to approach any problem in order to find a solution. I encourage my students to be the best they can be and give them the confidence to meet challenges." |
