“As a College of Engineering student and Christ College Scholar, I didn’t just receive an education. Valpo worked with me to graduate on time while still allowing me the flexibility to gain theoretical and practical knowledge in my classes and through my research internship at the Brookhaven National Laboratory, as well as participate in countless leadership opportunities and organizations.”

”Christ College gave me the tools I needed to succeed in the graduate school environment because it taught me how to think critically. I may not be trying to understand the categorical imperative and why I think it’s wrong anymore, but I apply those same skills of reading and writing critically and being involved in open discussions all the time to engineering research.”
