She designs and instructs combined engineering lab/technical communication courses and a technical communication course for engineering majors, serving as course co-ordinator.

Dr. Sharp has been recognized for her contributions to engineering education. She recently earned the American Society for Engineering Education Southeastern Section's 2004 Thomas C. Evans Award for "The Most Outstanding Paper Pertaining to Engineering Education in 2003." An article ("You've Got Mail") in the Feb. 2001 issue of PRISM magazine, a national magazine published by the American Society for Engineering Education, reported on her papers about using e-mail as a teaching tool.
