Vinnie Gallegos’ path to NYU began while serving as a United States Air Force loadmaster at Yokota Air Base outside Tokyo, Japan. “I loved understanding how my plane operated,” the nontraditional student from Phoenix, Arizona, explains. When it came time to decide whether to reenlist, he realized college presented an opportunity to apply his curiosity toward developing new technology. “Human civilization is facing unprecedented problems with climate change,” he says. “We have to engineer our way out.”
The NYU Tandon School of Engineering quickly became his top choice. “My original plan was to study engineering, but at NYU I could also pursue nuclear physics,” he shares. Once here, Vinnie discovered the potential of nuclear fusion—the source of the energy that powers the sun. If scientists can figure out how to harness its potential, fusion could theoretically provide limitless affordable and clean energy. He decided to major in Mathematics and Physics at @nyutandon with a minor in Mechanical Engineering.

Hello!!
My name is Faiza Mohamed (she/her), and I`m a rising junior studying Integrated Design & Media @idmnyu here at @nyutandon! I`m from NYC, shoutout to Queens.
On campus, you can usually find me giving tours as an Admissions Ambassador, or hanging out at events for the UX Club and the Tandon Muslim Students Association (MSA).
Outside, I usually spend my time working a 9-5 internship at the Bloomberg studio in school program at the International Center of Photography.
I`m also incredibly honored to be a Gilman Scholarship recipient, which is helping me fund my upcoming adventure: I`m heading to South Korea this fall for an exchange program through @tandonglobal !
I am so excited to take everyone along with my day (^-^)/
