Excellence in Teaching, 2020
Psychology
Since joining the UNH Manchester faculty in 2015, assistant professor of psychology Nicholas Mian’s passion for his subject has been a beacon of inspiration for students.
Mian brings his expertise as a licensed clinical psychologist into his classroom and lab, where students get real-world learning in child psychology. Incorporating hands-on lab elements and collaborative learning activities, Professor Mian focuses on teaching practical skills for the future. These skills include research, which is central to Mian’s curriculum. His students are empowered to put concepts into action by working directly with children and families in hischild psychology lab.
In addition to teaching, Mian’s research centers on understanding anxiety in young children and strengthening the design and implementation of early intervention and prevention programs. He is a tremendous asset to the Manchester faculty and a worthy recipient of the 2020 teaching excellence award.
