Who is Abrar?
Illinois Tech’s engineering programs initially interested me. But, when I got here, I quickly realized how many opportunities there were to build real-world skills. I have helped build a plane, worked to redesign a car engine, built leadership skills, and secured impactful internships—all of which have set me up for success as an engineer.
That’s Interesting
I led a student team that built a plane. We spent hours outside the classroom trying to make the plane fly. We took part in the design-build competition itself in Kansas, and we passed the tech inspection, a big first step, and we got it to fly.
