This Graduation Celebration is All in The Husky Family

A smiling Michigan Tech graduate in her cap and gown with other graduates gathered behind her as commencement line-up takes place in the university’s multipurpose room. — Abby Jurewicz, who earned her bachelor’s degree in cybersecurity, is returning to Tech for an advanced degree in health informatics.

The nearly 100 Huskies who graduated with the Michigan Tech College of Computing Class of 2024 at mid-year commencement included cybersecurity major Abby Jurewicz. For her, the milestone is both a personal accomplishment and the continuance of a cherished family tradition.

Jurewicz’s parents are both Tech grads. Mom Amy Jurewicz, ’94, earned her bachelor’s in business administration. Dad Jeff Jurewicz graduated in 1995 with a bachelor’s in mining engineering.

“Graduating with my degree in cybersecurity here feels exciting since I gained so many hands-on opportunities and saw all the different sides to cybersecurity.”

“The most fun part of my university journey was learning more about my likes and dislikes as well as meeting a lot of cool people!” said Jurewicz.

Jurewicz, who hails from Yorkville, Illinois, is grateful to everyone who has been there for her while she pursued her degree.

“I would have never made it through school without my family and Up North family cheering me on and pushing me to keep going—also a lot of caffeine,” said Jurewicz, who isn’t finished with her education journey as a College of Computing Husky.

“I’m excited about the future because I’ll be pursuing my master’s in health informatics here at Tech, and going in a more focused direction in my education,” she said.

College of Computing Dean Dennis Livesay offers his congratulations to all our graduating Huskies in the Midyear Class of 2024.

“I’m proud of your accomplishments and glad to have you all as members of our College of Computing family,” Livesay said. “We’re excited to see what you accomplish next!”
