Engineering Undecided
College Park Scholars-Science and Global Change Program
James "JJ" McCauley, 2024
Hi! My name is James "JJ" McCauley. I am currently a freshman at the University of Maryland: College Park. I am an Engineering Undecided student within the A. James Clark School of Engineering. At the moment, I am interested in pursuing either Aerospace or Mechanical Engineering, as I have always been fond of complex problem solving, applied physics and math, and taking a collaborative and creative approach to solving the world's most pressing challenges. At the University of Maryland, I am a part of the College Park Scholars: Science and Global Change program, a living-learning program with a focus on exploring global climate change. Since arriving in College Park, I have also joined UMD Loop, a competitive engineering team that designs and builds a Mars rover, competing in the University Rover Challenge. As a member of Loop, I am currently researching methods of applying fluorescent spectroscopy to analyze a soil sample for life signatures. In addition to Loop, I hope to become a member of the Japanese American Student Association and Terrapin Trails. Overall, I am always keeping my eye open for new opportunities to learn and meet new people.
