Elizabeth Whyms

I chose engineering as my major mostly because I have always enjoyed math, science, and computer programming classes. Computer Engineering just seemed like the perfect fit. I am excited to be part of the Clark School of Engineering, one of the top engineering schools in the nation, and to help convince others to come to our school too. Outside of engineering, I am a member of the University Honors Living and Learning program and part of a fun group called the Arrival Survival Team, which helps students to have a smooth move-in day. I spent my summer working as an intern at Northrop Grumman where I learned about the engineering process behind building radars. In my free time I love going to Maryland sports games, watching movies, and playing intramural soccer.
