Danielle Rhoten, C18
Major: Mechanical Engineering
Expected Graduation Year: 2023
CWIT has given so much to me in the short time that I have attended UMBC. It has provided me with a home away from home and a new family that I know I can count on to help me and support me in my various endeavors. Through this program, I have been provided many opportunities to develop my networking skills and have been given a helping hand in the transition to college life. So far, college has been great – hard, but an amazing learning experience. Since being at UMBC, I have explored various avenues to develop my interests through attending Baja, or UMBC Racing meetings, and also through my ENES 101 class. Through ENES, I was able to build a robot with a wonderful team and worked on a hands-on project, which is my favorite part of mechanical engineering. As my college career continues, I hope to have the pleasure of being an intern in the industry and further learn about what it means to be a mechanical engineer.
