“Columbia Engineering has definitely given me a wide range of quantitative, analytical, and interpersonal skills I'll be able to apply on my future path, no matter what its course — particularly from alternating among a strong engineering foundation, the breadth of the humanities courses, and the practical skills I’ve acquired getting involved with the Columbia entrepreneurial community.”
