From Ghana with love

From Ghana with love

Shravanth Reddy Reddy '24 August 10, 2023

Over the summer, the School of Engineering welcomed three students to campus from Ghana as they participated in Ethos Dayton immersions. Their immersions included working with the Westside Makerspace, Greater West Dayton Incubator and the Makerspace of DECA High School.

They worked on numerous projects at their immersion sites, including planning entrepreneurship-focused events, using 3D modeling software to build a school spirit store for DECA and empowering local kids through a Maker Day event.

The Ghanaian students came to UD from Academic City University College, which has had a partnership with the School of Engineering since 2020. Fred McBagonluri '05 is the president and provost of Academic City and a graduate of UD’s materials engineering doctoral program.
