Elizabeth Kenyon

I have always loved math, and I wanted it to be a major part of my
career, but I was not sure how. Another love, creating things, got me
interested in Engineering, and when I found out about Electrical
Engineering I knew I had found the career for me. This past summer I
worked at the National Institute for Standards and Technology as a part of their Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship, and had to opportunity to participate in scientific research first hand. I am a member of Inventis: Acadmey of Engineering Leaders here at UMD, and am involved with IAESTE. I enjoy travelling, am minoring in International Engineering and plan to study abroad in Australia in the Fall. I also play multiple intramural sports and love to attend events at CSPAC.
