When Zac Kissell was searching for a summer job last March, he didn’t expect it would alter his career goals.
The rising third-year mechanical engineering technology student at the University of Dayton stumbled upon a posting to work at Flyer Farm, the university’s student-run urban agriculture initiative. More than a year later, Kissell said the experience has inspired him to explore careers that combine engineering and the environment, in the hopes of making systems more streamlined and sustainable.
“I can just look into making something that is going to be efficient for not only the environment but also society itself,” Kissell said.
