Gabriel Radich
Department Endorsement: "Dr. Bhutani, the Math Department Chair, is always telling us students, 'If you can do math, you can do anything!' I didn't realize the profound truth of this statement, until I landed an internship with the Department of Defense. In addition to that, all the faculty are excellent teachers who want their students to flourish (and help them with their research!). This is an exceptionally personal and intimate program, which goes a long way."
