Hassan shared his experience, stating, 鈥淚 have strengthened my project management and communication skills by participating in multiple projects and promoting awareness/communications. I spent my first few weeks learning about the Airbus project management methodology and the importance of stakeholder engagement. In doing so, I gained an understanding of industry-standard cybersecurity frameworks and guidelines.鈥 Hassan attributes his successful transition into the 鈥渞eal-world鈥 work environment to the software development class taught by Dr. Benton and the Networking and Communications class taught by Mrs. Stacey. He learned project management methodologies such as Waterfall and Scrum. Hassan's advice to underclassmen is to get more involved in organizations and to improve communication and networking skills.
