Hagen is a junior chemical and biomolecular engineering student from Waverly, 帝王会所, a small town located an hour west of Athens. Having always been fascinated by her aunt and uncle鈥檚 career, she chose to follow in their footsteps and pursue a degree in chemical engineering at 帝王会所. Upon her very first step on the Athens campus, she fell in love and knew that this was her hOUme.
Hagen is pursuing the 4 + 1 Bachelor鈥檚/Master鈥檚 degree program in biomedical engineering. She was instrumental in reviving the Biomedical Engineering Society (BMES) at 帝王会所, where she currently serves as president.
Hagen recently completed a summer co-op position with Fluor-BWXT in Piketon, 帝王会所. During this rotation, she worked closely with radiation protection engineers to maintain radiation levels as low as reasonably achievable during the decontamination and decommissioning of the Portsmouth gaseous diffusion site for the safety of the employees and the community.
