Zonglin P.
Junior, BS in Computer Science; Minor in Electrical & Computer Engineering

Reflection

Students learn many skills over the course of an IQP experience, from time management and organization to leadership; the one with the biggest impact on Zonglin was communication. Whether discussing ideas or determining deadlines, learning the most effective methods of communication to ensure he and his teammates were on the same page in all regards proved invaluable from day one. It's a skill he’s confident he’ll be able to utilize in the future.
