Meet Our Students
Sofia Savoca '21
Civil Engineering
Sofia Savoca chose UMass Lowell for the opportunity to be in the Honors College and to study civil engineering. She’s found a dozen new opportunities since arriving on campus.
Opportunities, opportunities – it’s raining opportunities. They’re here if you work hard and know where to look.
Mya Neary '20
Entrepreneurship & Management
Mya Neary won an honors fellowship to learn more about running an urban farming nonprofit. Now she’s volunteering with Mill City Grows while developing her own business plan.
UMass Lowell has let me spread myself out so I can try new things, and that’s helped me figure out what I want to do.
Andrew Sciascia '20
Political Science & Criminal Justice
Andrew Sciascia’s studies in political science and homeland security are combining with his student newspaper experience to prepare him for a career as a political analyst.
We all come to this university with a different story, and we are welcomed with open arms.
Nicole Haas '18, '20
Public Health
Nicole Haas always knew she wanted a career helping people. The Master of Public Health major landed an internship with the Revive Recovery Center and is taking on one of the most challenging public health crises of the last 20 years: the opioid epidemic.
These face-to-face experiences are how I learned so much about the recovery community and how to continue finding ways to help people and prevent fatal outcomes.
Jack Goutier '20
Electrical Engineering
For electrical engineering major Jack Goutier of Attleboro, failure was part of the job during his six-month product safety co-op at Bose Corp.
The co-op program is why I chose UMass Lowell ... I knew I wanted to get a taste of the real world before fully devoting myself to my career.
