"During my search for a graduate program, it quickly became clear that UVA MAE offered the best research program of any school I was considering. My experience here has exceeded my already-high expectations. I have been able to work with some of the most respected researchers in the field in leading-edge facilities both at UVA and in government labs. Those opportunities will benefit my career for years to come."
