Mimi Eldebri

I’m an international student from Libya. I currently serve as the president for the Middle Eastern Dance Association, where I help organize cultural events and promote community through dance. I also work as a technician assistant in the Materials Synthesis and Characterization Lab, where I assist with equipment maintenance that contributes to thin-film deposition projects. In addition, I interned a Boeing as an Electrical Engineering intern, working with systems and gaining experience with aerospace engineering. When I’m not in the lab, I enjoy weightlifting, hiking, and boxing.  

After graduation, I plan to pursue a career in semiconductor process engineering, focusing on sustainable device manufacturing and materials research. 

My advice for incoming students is to stay curious and take advantage of every opportunity to get involved, both academically and socially. Joining clubs and research labs helps you learn new skills and also helps you find a sense of community on campus.

I recommend Google Calendar (or any calendar app) to help keep your class schedule and club meetings all in one place so you don’t miss anything.
