 Hi I'm Gideon Nelson. I'm a civil engineering major here at UWM. I dream to one day build superstructures like the Freedom Tower currently being built in New York City. Right now I'm an RA in the engineering LLC here in Sandburg Resident Hall. We have about a hundred engineering and computer science majors. We really enjoy going to classes together, studying and hanging out. We definitely take advantage of being in Milwaukee. Last semester we went to Discovery World and built robots and now this semester we're going to take a look at the hydraulic controls in Miller Park and even Harley. I mean you really wouldn't get this experience anywhere else. The College of Engineering and Applied Science offers a lot of help to its students. I received the Engineering Excellence Scholarship. It's great that they saw my potential and wanted to invest in me. I'm Gideon Nelson and I'm on the road to becoming a Milwaukee engineer.
