Bengisu
MS in Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering
“I think it is very important to see the place you work and study in as your home, especially if you are an international student. Although it is always difficult to adapt to a new place and a new environment, from day one, I always felt the inclusion and the community spirit within GW. I particularly remember the first class I took, it was Energy Systems Analysis class from Professor Charles Garris. After taking that class, I felt that I am in the right University for pursuing my goals. Now, at the end of two years that I have been at the GWU, I can't reach the third floor (the Mechanical Engineering Department floor), without saying hi to everyone!”
