Greg Hernandez

Hometown: Catskill, New York

One word to describe me: ambitious

Major: audio and music engineering (BS)

Future Plans: Taking the summer for myself to pursue music and other personal endeavors before leaving for the United Kingdom on a Fulbright Award to earn my masters in acoustical engineering from the University of Southampton. Upon returning from that I will be transitioning to Duke University to work on my PhD in electrical and computer engineering where I will be researching acoustic metamaterials.

"The David T. Kearns Center was the foundation for my academic success at the University of Rochester. Being a Xerox Engineering Fellow, and a McNair Scholar guided me to my graduate degree decision and fellowship awards. I have always felt that the department fostered a community of social engagement, and emphasized academic achievement"
