My Michigan Tech: Lydia Festian, BS in Mechatronics


Lydia Festian likes the way Michigan Tech’s mechatronics program gives her electrical application, electrical-mechanical integration, and programming experience. “Getting all of that combined into a degree is pretty cool.” One of the things she loves most about her department are the excellent instructors, who are “just great people to know. They have a lot of industry contacts and are always willing to help you out.”
