Distinguished Teaching
The AMSA Distinguished Teaching Award was established to recognize excellence in teaching undergraduate and graduate meat science courses and the impact on the lives of those students in a highly positive manner. Hawkins Food Ingredients Group sponsors the Distinguished Teaching Award.
“When it comes to the qualities of an outstanding educator, Dr. Carr checks a lot of boxes: he is a well-respected expert in meat science, he is passionate about animal agriculture, and he has a long-lasting impact on his students,” commented Dr. Jason Scheffler, Assistant Professor from the University of Florida.
Dr. Carr said, “I cultivate and maintain a learning environment filled with excitement. I want class to be a fun, invigorating learning opportunity for all involved parties.”
