Bill Schellenbach
Class of 2012
At Miami's Hamilton campus, I was able to participate in a research project with Dr. Mark Krekeler. This research allowed me to get hands-on experience in on-going research and publish several peer-reviewed articles early in my geoscience career. For me, this opportunity validated my choice of geology as a major.
