Faculty Spotlight Podcast
During Spring 2021, fellow MEAM junior Adam Liang and I debuted our “Faculty Spotlight” podcast/video series, through Penn’s chapter of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). We talk to renowned Mechanical Engineering and Applied Mechanics faculty and explore their career paths, passions for teaching, and advice for students at Penn and beyond.
