Eastern Mennonite University has awarded scholarships to three first-year engineering majors.<\/span><\/p>\n

Engineering at EMU<\/span><\/a> provides students with one-on-one mentors, research opportunities and a spectrum of liberal arts skills that have a proven track record, as 98 percent of EMU graduates seeking jobs land degree-relevant employment within a year \u2013 or have jobs lined up even before they graduate.<\/span><\/p>\n

The program is housed in brand new facilities as a result of the most recent Suter Science Center renovation completed this year.<\/span><\/p>\n

Departmental scholarships<\/span><\/a> at EMU are awarded to incoming students in specific academic and extracurricular programs, including engineering. Students may receive scholarships of up to $3,000 that can be renewed for four years and are in addition to their basic financial aid packages. <\/span><\/p>\n

Jonas Beachy<\/b> (Grants Pass, Oregon) enjoys the real-life engineering applications of math problems; he\u2019s majoring in both engineering and math, with a Spanish minor. While he came to EMU to make friends and connections and gain knowledge, he also wanted \u201can Anabaptist education that would provide me the tools to succeed in engineering,\u201d he said, so that in his career he \u201ccan contribute to creating a better future for all.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Malachi Malone<\/b> (Midland, North Carolina) has Silicon Valley dreams \u2013 to work for Apple as a software engineer. He\u2019s majoring in mechanical engineering with a minor in writing, and said he chose EMU for its size and surrounding area. He is looking forward to \u201cbeing a part of the small, uplifting and helpful community at EMU.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Laura Troyer <\/b>(Millersburg, Ohio) competed in competitions in high school that ultimately helped her find her passion for problem-solving, something already being put to use at EMU: Her introduction to engineering class is designing the set for the spring theater production. \u201cI\u2019m excited to learn about the engineering process while doing something that will actually get to be used by others,\u201d she said. In her college search she settled on EMU because \u201cit felt like the place that I could most easily call my home. And I\u2019m so happy to be here.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
