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 amputations haven’t stopped Ben Masten from working as a paramedic, but he still faces challenges every day. A team of Trine University biomedical engineering majors worked this spring to help him overcome one of them.
Trine University has named Eric Yoder, who most recently served as chief executive officer of the YMCA of Steuben County, as its new vice president for operations, beginning in June.
As we celebrate National Nurses Week, the nursing workforce is under pressure across the country. Staff shortages, high patient acuity and increasing complexity of care delivery are besetting our healthcare systems. Nursing education programs are being asked to provide graduates who will step directly into practice - faster, more efficiently and with the ability to cope at an increasingly fast pace with changing environments.
