My name is Sonny DePerio. I’m a junior majoring in Mechanical Engineering Technology. My objectives for attending ODU include:

  1. Graduating and becoming an engineer
  2. Obtaining technical skills such as programming, drafting, and manufacturing
  3. Networking with fellow peers, professors, and companies
  4. Collaborating with others to do hands on projects and research

Studying fluid mechanics and thermal applications will provide me with a strong foundation in fundamental engineering principles, which is crucial for graduating and becoming a proficient engineer. Additionally, understanding these topics will enhance my technical skills by enabling me to analyze and optimize engineering designs, collaborate effectively with peers on hands-on projects, and communicate with professionals in relevant industries, facilitating networking and collaborative research opportunities.
