Mechanical engineering student Downing Koestler sp

Mechanical engineering student Downing Koestler spent the summer at CITE Armored in nearby Holly Springs as a manufacturing intern.

“They asked me to take my knowledge and try to improve production and quality – basically give them my two cents. I was looking for areas where value wasn’t being added to the company."

This was all thanks to the Robert M. Hearin Foundation grant to the CME. The grant helps fund internships at smaller Mississippi-based companies.

AMBASSADOR SPOTLIGHT⭐⭐⭐

Thomas Wasson is a sophomore chemical engineering major who enjoys giving back to his community.

“I volunteer at the Jackson Free Clinic and Stewpot in downtown Jackson. Being from Jackson, it is a very rewarding experience being able to give back to the community that I was raised in and that ultimately made me who I am today.”

Thomas decided to pursue a degree in engineering at Ole Miss because of our program’s versatility and real-world applications.

“As an engineering student, rather than learning to complete a task, you are taught to think logically. It provides a set of applicable problem-solving skills unlike any other major on campus, which can be applied to a host of careers after college.”

Capri Lobotzke is a sophomore biomedical engineering major on the pre-dental track!

As a student administrator for the Ole Miss Football Program, she gets to work closely with Rebel coaches, recruits and football staff.

“My job has allowed me to be a part of the greatest conference in college football, the SEC!”

She also takes part in many community service organizations, like Grove Grocery and Memory Makers.

“I volunteer as the Secretary with Grove Grocery. It is so fulfilling to contribute to feeding the staff and students on our campus who struggle with food insecurity and helping with the logistical aspects of the food pantry.”

Ph.D. student Ben Savino and Professor Wen Wu spen

Ph.D. student Ben Savino and Professor Wen Wu spent the summer at Stanford University performing research. Ben had the
opportunity to work with PhD students from around the globe.

"We’re working in such a niche area. Even when I was out in the
evening with the other Ph.D. students, it was natural to talk about
work. We can discuss complex things with people who understand."

He is the recipient of the highly competitive NSF-Graduate Research
Fellowship award. During Ben and Professor Wu's free time in the
Golden State, they checked out tons of restaurants, hiked through Half
Moon Bay and the primeval redwoods at Muir Woods, and even hit a
Giants game at Oracle Park.
