Be ready to take your academic journey to the next level. Don't forget to enjoy the process as much as the achievement.

What are some organizations or extracurricular activities you are involved with on campus?  
I'm part of the iGEM community, BMES (Biomedical Engineering Society), and the WIE (Women in Engineering) Program.

What is a cool engineering experience you've had? 
A cool experience I've had is building DC and AC circuits in my Biomedical Instrumentation Class.
