ECE IT Sweeps the Pride of the WolfPack

This month’s recipients of the College of Engineering’s “Pride of the WolfPack” award have been announced, and four of ECE’s Information Technology staff have come up winners. The “Pride of the WolfPack” is an award designed to recognize NC State employees for a special or unique contribution to their college/unit or the University. Criteria for the award include: Leadership on the job, Customer focus, and Quality of service. Numerous nominations were submitted by ECE faculty and staff, a sample of which we provide below.
Brian provides “supreme quality service to students, staff and faculty at ECE Department. He can trouble shoot any computer related hardware and software problem. Usually he stays long hours with patience and professionalism… I have been impressed with Brian’s positive and skilled approach to IT support, well beyond his peers, and he has uniquely enabled me and my graduate students to be productive within the lab and at our desks.”
“Andrew is the most hard working and dedicated person I know. He never complains and he is always willing to help. Andrew is a joy to work with: effective, fast, professional, and reliable. He has provided the best programs for the admissions analysis for the ECE Graduate Office, one of the largest programs at the COE. While he also works for ECE on other projects, he makes himself available anytime.”
Micah has been “invaluable in setting up software for VLSI Design Class, including Cadence Virtuoso 6.1.1 software, Synopsys HSPICE, and CiraNova Pycell 4.1.1. These packages are incredibly cumbersome to install (they can take weeks of effort), but Micah was able to do it along with juggling his responsibilities with 40 other faculty.”
“ECE has remained seamless in their computer and network environment. Dan is prompt with his responses to individual needs. How he does it, I just don’t know. His hours are endless and he goes without recognition most of the time EXCEPT when something goes wrong. And, yet, with all this, he remains calm and collegial.”
