Testimonials

Jason Lortie

Professor in Lean Analysis - FGCU

Mr. Benchikha was an outstanding performer in my class showing excellent initiative and a scholarly attitude towards the material. He was a top performer across all of the assignments we had throughout the semester. This is not something I say lightly as ENT 3414 is designed to be the hardest class in our undergraduate curriculum where students are learning advanced Excel techniques and working to understand complex statistical analyses and build decision making models utilizing Monte Carlo techniques.

Olfa Boubaker

Professor in Control Systems - INSAT

I had Mr. Karem BenChikha in the courses of Robotics, Non Linear Systems, and CAD with Labview. He was a diligent student with an analytical capacity, an intellectual autonomy and a very good quality of communication.
