Our SSE students had a blast at Boot Camp, getting a sneak peek at UMKC life before classes even started! From hands-on labs and interactive lectures to mock exams (don't worry, no grades!), students got an early taste of what it's like to be a Roo.

And yes, they even practiced juggling. College is all about balancing priorities, after all!

Are you ready for the first day of classes, Roos? Looks like Dean Mostafá is!

SSE students Isabel Holthouse and Dominic Colbert turned their summer internships into opportunities to explore their career goals and build real-world experience.

Isabel Holthouse was a mechanical engineering intern in the technical engineering department at HESStec in Valencia, Spain, where she contributed to the design of hybrid energy storage solutions connecting the electrical grid and electric vehicle charging stations. Through her work at HESStec, she gained invaluable international experience in hybrid energy storage and collaborated with engineers from across Europe and Latin America, broadening both her technical knowledge and global perspective.

Dominic Colbert is an application developer intern on Evergy's Power Marketing team, where he has automated CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions and self-hosted runners to streamline .NET application deployments. He also contributed to the modernization of the team's XML processor for Evergy's Energy Management Agreement Portal. Continuing with the team through the fall semester, he is currently leading a migration of application authentication from SAML to MSAL.

Sometimes support comes on four paws. Meet Holly, the service dog helping UMKC student Mollie Stark navigate life with Type 1 diabetes.

When Mollie needed her service dog by her side in organic chemistry lab, UMKC found a way to make it work. Through collaboration across campus, faculty and staff created a framework that supports both safety and accessibility for future students.
