More than 270 students from the college graduated on May 17. Among them were two bachelor’s degree recipients who were featured in UWM’s graduation promotions.
Suzanne Gorman graduated with a bachelor’s in mechanical engineering and is continuing with her accelerated master’s degree at UWM while working in new role as an applications engineer at Lucas Milhaupt. Gorman is taking advantage of the college’s Accelerated Graduate Degree program which offers students the opportunity to earn a bachelor’s and a master’s in as few as five years.
At Lucas Milhaupt, she will develop customized brazing solutions. Brazing involves creating metallic mixtures that are used to join base metals without melting them. Her achievement was showcased in the photo slideshow “Hired Before Graduation” in the UWM REPORT.
Greg Oberbroeckling earned a bachelor’s degree in industrial engineering. He appeared in the campus-producedvideo (at the 1:57 mark) that showcases one graduate from each college and their next steps. Studying to be an engineer while also serving as president of the men’s club soccer team taught him that hard work and commitment are needed for success, Oberbroeckling said.
