Meet Yakira Mirabito

Berkeley graduate students are known for their exceptional accomplishments after completing their degrees. However, our graduate students are also engaged in exciting activities throughout the year, all while pursuing their academic goals. In preparation for the fall semester, we asked some of our students about their experiences beyond the campus.

One of the students who shared their research experience was Yakira Mirabito, a graduate student pursuing a Ph.D. in engineering. After finishing her undergraduate education at Northwestern University, Yakira Mirabito chose to come to the west coast for graduate school at Berkeley.

I chose Berkeley for lots of reasons, most prominently a great program and an active design community that spans multiple disciplines.
