Meet Our Students & Alumni
Laurie Agel '18
Marine Sciences & Technology
Software engineer Laurie Agel was looking for a career change in her 40s. Fifteen years later, she has her Ph.D. in marine sciences and technology from UML and is working as a post-doctoral research assistant, studying extreme precipitation and flooding in the Charles and Mystic river basins.
I’ve seen many, many people like me – people doing a second career and coming in from another field. And there’s just so much excitement at UMass Lowell. I don’t really feel like a fish out of water.
Jamie-Lyn Cavallon '24
Meteorology
Jamie-Lyn Cavallon won an NSF-funded meteorology internship.
It was a great opportunity.
Aya Oulal '23
Environmental Science
Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, Aya Oulal was able to study abroad in Spain, attend COP28 in Dubai and become a resident advisor.
UMass Lowell was great. I don’t think I would have done so much or even considered this path for myself without the university.
Tyler Harrington
Atmospheric Science
Before starting his Ph.D. in atmospheric science at UMass Lowell, Tyler Harrington interned at the Federal Aviation Administration, where he wrote a report for Congress on how extreme weather events affect air travel.
I knew that this was a person I really wanted to work with.
Erin McGuire '21
Geoscience
Erin McGuire has been able to ease into her new job as staff geologist at Nobis Group in Concord, N.H., while putting the finishing touches on her bachelor’s degree in environmental science with a geoscience option.
I’m excited to have the outdoors as my office. I really love being outside.
