Kathryn
Construction Engineering
Hometown: Edina, MN
Best part of being an Iowa
State student:
My friends! I've made friends that I know I will
have forever.
Why Iowa State:
It has one of the top construction engineering
programs in the country. I visited campus on a
beautiful fall day and fell in love with it!
Internship:
I worked for a construction firm in Kansas
City. Because of the scope of a construction
project, many subcontractors (electrical,
excavating, plumbing, etc.) are needed. I sent
invitations to subcontractors to bid on projects.
Then I would compare their proposals and make
recommendations.
Dream Job: To be a project manager at a large
construction firm.
Sorority: I am happy to
be a member of
Delta Zeta.
Being in a
sorority has helped me develop leadership
skills, make friends, and just have fun!
Advice to New Students: Don't be
afraid to ask for help. Engineering can be
challenging at times, but it is a very rewarding
field.
