JMU Engineering gave me a unique opportunity to have an interdisciplinary engineering education with a human centered design focus. Starting my freshman year, I had the ability to work directly with users to design solutions that met their needs. I feel the ability to not only gain an engineering education but also acquire the fundamental skills necessary to apply them to create real solutions has made me a well-rounded professional today.
