Civil Engineering • Will Rice College • 1st year at Rice

Hello! My name is Yoseline Mendoza, and I am a first-generation Hispanic student who began her college journey at Lone Star College before transferring to Rice. I'm a civil engineering major, hoping to rebuild infrastructure in underserved communities. I love conducting research in both STEM and humanities fields, which I had the opportunity to do at Lone Star College and a water treatment lab at Rice this past summer. I'm also looking forward to being part of student organizations like HACER, SWE, and SHPE.
