Her MEAM Career:
"I selected the U-M because the MEAM graduate program
is one of the top five int he country, and the Fluid Mechanics area is very
strong. The University also has excellent research facilities and its computing
facilities are among the best in the country. Because I had been an
undergraduate here, I knew the people were friendly and it was a comfortable
atmosphere."
Judy plans to work in industry for about 10 years, then teach at a small
university.
