Meet Amaya
A chemical engineering major from Indianapolis, Indiana.
What do you most expect to gain from being part of our scholars program?
Further connecting with peers from all backgrounds.
How do you spend your free time?
Listening to music, going to parks with my friends(pre-corona), community service, and knitting while watching a movie.
What is the nerdiest thing you do?
I watch the history channel for fun.
How do you hope to change the world with the knowledge you’ll gain at Rose-Hulman?
I am overjoyed to be a part of this next generation of STEM majors that also consider the moral ramifications of their actions and career choices. Freethinkers and humanitarians along with being science nerds. To go out into the world and value the good of the collective over personal comfort.
How did you know Rose was right for you?
When I visited and felt just a wave of peace instead of nervousness like I felt on my other college visits. Just kind of a gut feeling.
