K Bauman
Like Levenson, Bauman found his passion in materials science. Bauman grew up outside of Philadelphia, and, as he said, “Living in the Steel City, there’s such a focus on metallurgy, and I got interested in that.”
This summer, Bauman, who will receive a $10,000 scholarship, will intern at Ellwood Aluminum, in Hubbard, Ohio, where he will gain firsthand experience working with aluminum. “My classes have focused more on steel and steel alloys, so I’ll get to expand what I know, seeing up close what’s similar and different. We get the opportunity to work on real projects that we take on ourselves.”
“We’re grateful for Ellwood’s ongoing, generous support of our students,” said Buddy Clark, professor and interim department chair of the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Materials Science. “They provide valuable financial assistance and hands-on experience that can’t be taught in the classroom. Margo and Koh are incredibly deserving students, and I’m excited for the summer opportunities that await them.”
