Major: Mechanical Engineering

Email: emily.root@uconn.edu

Before graduating high school, I went to an open house that Engineering Ambassadors hosted. I loved the sense of community that I felt around all of the EA students and I really wanted to be part of an organization that provided me with that same positivity and support! Last year, I was very active in the Tour Guides section of EA and I really enjoyed informing incoming students about what the UConn School of Engineering looks like and sharing some of my experiences with them. This year as Vice President of Greater Body, I am really excited to organize fun activities during our meetings and to promote the same sense of community that initially made me want to join EA!
