The COVID-19 pandemic has brought changes to higher education and Texas A&M University has been no exception. As the J. Mike Walker ’66 Department of Mechanical Engineering prepares to return for the fall semester, students like Aaron Cozart are ready to return — even if things are different from a typical semester.
"I’m still really looking forward to this the fall semester, particularly classes and the career fair," said Cozart, a sophomore in the department. "While the majority of classes are in an online or hybrid format, the spring and summer classes I’ve taken have shown that these formats are still a great environment for learning and interacting with others, so I’m eagerly waiting for those to start."
Cozart added that while the Student Engineers' Council virtual career fair will also be different from its traditional in-person format, he is excited for the opportunities and experience it will provide.
