Dr. Mazurek was instrumental in the development of Bergen's Associate of Arts Degree in electronic music and was the recipient of a prestigious Fulbright Senior Specialist Award, in Bogota, Columbia, and a Fellowship in Composition from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts. In October 2009, the College renamed the Music Technology Laboratory in West Hall in honor of Dr. Mazurek's passion for education and commitment to students.
