Amulya Aluru SB '23, MEng '24
Arriving at MIT, I was surprised by how close and connected the student body is. Everyone is amazingly down-to-earth and passionate about both their academic and extracurricular pursuits. I’ve worked in the Page Lab as a UROP and then, after graduating, as an MEng student. My master’s project studied sex differences in human height using statistical genetics. My MIT experience and the mentors I have met here have shaped my research, teaching, and career interests. Don’t be afraid to talk to your professors, TAs, and advisors! My work with Dr. Page started because I reached out to one of my 7.03 Genetics TAs about her research.
