"Prior to my time spent at MPC, I only knew that I liked math and taking computers apart; however, engineering wasn't even on my radar! When I took the Intro to Engineering course, I realized just how perfectly computer engineering fit my interests. I feel privileged to have had the opportunity to take advantage of the quality and accessibility of the faculty and resources at MPC."
