Meet our students

While the FOP is faculty-directed, it is student-led. Advisory boards also lend important oversight, and their members strengthen the FOP with their involvement.

Mona Sehgal, BS’19, talks about what students will gain from this program and why opportunity is important to her and others in the community.
