Student Spotlight: Zak Staub

Zak Staub became inspired to study mechanical and aerospace science and engineering, but AvenueE transformed his UC Davis experience and helped him prepare to graduate this spring, 2023. 

“AvenueE has been a great experience for me as a transfer student at Davis. It has been a program with a great group of people who have provided wonderful resources and support, allowing me to be succeed at Davis. It has prepared me for the career fairs where I was able to land my internship with the Airforce.” 

Investing in the Future

Mechanical engineering student Eunbee Park ’19, computer science and engineering student Max Nedorezov ‘19 and civil engineering students Claudia Plascencia ’19 and Tadewos Getachew ’19 are just a few of the students at University of California, Davis, who have the chance to achieve their dreams thanks to the growing AvenueE program.

Sowing the Seeds of Diversity in Engineering

Here at the University of California, Davis, we’ve partnered with Chevron and the Koret Foundation to launch AvenueE, a community college transfer program designed to eliminate barriers that hold back women and underrepresented minorities in engineering and computer science. The program serves high potential, low resource students from families in which neither parent holds a bachelor’s degree.
