Lecturer Profile

Associate Professor Gah-Kok, Jacob Gan
He started his apprenticeship as an EDB projects officer in 1975 after graduating from the then University of Singapore with a mechanical engineering degree. Lured by the opportunities in Saudi Arabia, he joined a Singapore-based company to manage a cargo handling operation at Jeddah Port in 1977. After failing to strike black-gold there, he returned to Singapore in 1978 and worked for a firm to set up and manage a manufacturing plant as its general manager until in 1983 when NTU (then NTI) made him an offer that excited him. He went for his graduate studies at the University of Michigan in 1984 and has been working with NTU ever since.

In addition to face-to-face learning and teaching, he also has great passion for eLearning and has been developing and conducting eLearning courses, both scientific and soft-skill based courses. To hone his presentation skills he has been active practicing his babblings in Toastmasters clubs, including taking parts in many speech contests which he failed to win until recently when he emerged Champion in the District 80 Area Z Humorous Speech Contest.
