My days are usually fast-paced, so I get up early to prepare for the day and go to classes.
Jorgo Gushi
Junior, BS in Electrical and Computer Engineering, Minor in Mechanical Engineering
As a transfer student, Jorgo has jumped into life at WPI with both feet. From joining several student organizations and committees to rushing a fraternity, he not only demonstrates his time management and collaboration skills, but meets new friends. “Getting involved … made me feel part of a community, part of a family.”
Extracurriculars are just part of his WPI experience; academics are at top of mind—he made the Dean’s List, he was assigned to the Beijing Project Center for his IQP, and he selected his MQP to complete his senior year.
What’s next for Jorgo? He’s currently applying for WPI’s BS/MS program, with a goal of earning his in 2023 before enrolling in a doctorate program in his field.
