CENTREVILLE, Mich. — Several members of the Trine University community participated in the MiCareerQuest event hosted by Glen Oaks Community College on March 28.
Glen Oaks welcomed about 750 ninth-graders from St. Joseph County, Michigan, for the event. More than 35 area employers, including Trine, offered activities to allow the students to become familiar with career options.
Tim Tyler, Ph.D., dean of the Allen School of Engineering and Technology, presented an activity at the event, as did Anne Mammel, a senior majoring in biomedical engineering; Ayasha Faria, a sophomore majoring in chemical engineering; and Jed Bowen, a junior majoring in chemical engineering.
Two Trine University alumni were recently named to the fifth annual Rising 30 class, recognizing outstanding young professionals making significant early-career contributions to Indiana’s advanced manufacturing and logistics (AML) sectors.
While many professors would frown on students playing games during class, it was encouraged in one Trine University course this past spring.
Katie Sloneker was a high-achieving student at Trine University, helping take the women’s basketball team to the NCAA Division III Final Four, double-majoring and earning her MBA, working in the Admission Office and being part of Ehinger Fellows.
