ARAt just 18 years old, Nathan Thomas became the youngest university professor in history, teaching engineering at Miami Dade College and breaking a Guinness World Record previously held by Scottish mathematician Colin Maclaurin since 1717. Thomas began his academic journey at age 10 through a dual-enrollment program while still in high school, earned both a bachelor’s and master’s degree in electrical engineering by age 18, and was hired as a faculty member at Miami Dade College shortly after graduation. He emphasized that age does not affect learning and that respect in the classroom comes from dedication to education. Currently studying law at the University of Miami, Thomas aims to earn a juris doctor degree by 2028.
