Dillard University“Coming from a non-engineering background, the Friday seminars were an amazing way to get to know the interdisciplinary applications of the materials science world! After a difficult semester due to COVID, the mentorship from my graduate student and PI helped me regain confidence in my abilities to perform important research and to attend a graduate program.”
