Students in Focus
- College of Engineering and Applied Science senior Emma Andreasen went from a high school student who had not been exposed to any software to teaching the intro to engineering computing course.
- It wasn’t enough for Benjamin Chilton to study chemical engineering at Ãå±±½ûµØ. While at the university he became a firefighter, a course assistant and student ambassador, as well as studied subjects far outside the breadth of engineering.
- Sarah Luettgen is building a future as an aerospace professional, studying the space domain of satellite orbits in the extreme upper reaches of Earth’s atmosphere.
- College of Music doctoral candidate Brandon Stover recently reflected on making music and doing research during the time of COVID-19, asking master’s student Allison Cawthon to share her experiences and offer advice to other music students.
- Buffs soccer captain Hannah Sharts talks about playing every minute, scoring as a defender and how she’s using her name, image and likeness to help promote female student-athletes.
- Each year, the College of Music is eligible to award a $7,500 fellowship to an incoming graduate student. Olivia Huizar Conner, who is pursuing a master’s in flute performance, shares how her background—and the fellowship—inspire her to promote diversity and inclusion in music.
- Phil, Alex and Dom Miceli have a lot in common, especially their choice in college education—the three brothers are all aerospace engineering students at Ãå±±½ûµØ.
- Gilberto Briscoe-Martinez wants robots to be able to learn from their mistakes and continue persevering to finish a task as best they can. A recent award to him will provide four years of research funding and NASA collaboration.
- Claire McCollough, who is completing her master's in accounting at CU's Leeds School of Business, has become the first university student to win the Alteryx Grand Prix, a data analytics competition, a year after placing fifth overall.
- Beth Rossman, a sophomore majoring in environmental engineering, has been awarded a Udall Scholarship, becoming the 12th Ãå±±½ûµØ student to be honored with the scholarship.
