Meet Our 2022 Team

Get to know the hardworking students who dedicate their time to running the association.

MAEA has been an eye-opening experience for me. Getting to work with fellow students to provide our club’s members with the networking experience they needed was so rewarding!

Now, as the President of MAEA, I wish to only improve on what we have provided in the past, giving students in engineering more opportunities to talk to industry and understand where they want their careers to go after graduating.
