Albion College's Dual Degree Engineering program prepared me well not only for my engineering classes but also for the real world. In my presentation, I will talk about how the professors, classes, and classmates at Albion prepared me for the Mechanical Engineering major at the University of Michigan, all of the challenges and opportunities available at U of M, and the experience I gained while interning with John Deere as a Product Engineer at the Seeding Group in Moline, IL this past summer.
