Alex Frieden '09
Mathematics
Alex Frieden found his calling thanks to an elective sociology course.
UMass Lowell hires professors who are there to connect with students, and that really speaks to the university鈥檚 character
Surbhi Kanthed '19
Computer Science
Surbhi Kanthed鈥檚 team won a huge hackathon for women students 鈥� and now she is working at Red Hat.
The professors help you, they groom you and they teach you so many things.
Feriel Boudif '25
Biological Sciences
By her sophomore year, Feriel Boudif had secured two paid research assistant positions on campus.
Working in a lab is an eye-opener. Research is something I could see myself doing as a profession.
John Kilgo '19
Computer Science
John Kilgo VI began working at MITRE Corporation more than three years ago as an intern, when he was a UMass Lowell undergraduate. Now, he鈥檚 employed there full time as a software systems engineer, while enrolled part time in the master鈥檚 program in computer science.
The flexibility of the program allows the courses to sync up with what I鈥檓 doing at work.
