Hi
I am Wanglim Song, a dedicated Aerospace Engineering student at Virginia Tech, Class of 2027. I'm a student engineer adept at optimum design and complex systems engineering. I have experience with engineering software such as ANSYS, NASTRAN, SolidWorks, and Inventor.
I have engaged in numerous innovative academic projects, such as designing and developing a novel rocket-propelled hopper that utilizes surface ice as a propellant, showcasing my ability to solve complex engineering challenges creatively. Having led my high school rocketry team, I continue to develop my leadership skills through challenging projects in engineering general. I am committed to deepening my expertise in both aerospace and nuclear engineering as I plan to double major in Nuclear Engineering.
