About Me
My name is Emily Yagoda and I am a first-year student studying Biomedical Engineering in the Pratt School of Engineering at Duke University. I am currently involved with Engineering Student Government, Duke University Debating Society, and Duke Impact Investing Group.
Name Pronunciation
My first name is pronounced eh-mi-lee, or formally /ˈɛməliː/. Someone told me once that the name is derived from the Roman family name "Aemilius", but I think my parents were simply lacking creativity. Yagoda sounds like yuh-go-duh. Like Yoda, with a few extra letters. Or as my Algebra II teacher called me, the silver (Ag) in Yoda.
Current Courses
I am currently taking:
- EGR 103: Engineering Design and Communication
- EGR 103L: Computational Methods in Engineering
- CHEM 101DL: Core Concepts in Chemistry
- MATH 111L: Laboratory Calculus I
Grand Challenges for Engineering Articles
Of the articles currently posted on the Grand Challenges for Engineering page, I found the following the most interesting:
- Better security achieved with randomly generating biological encryption keys, Penn State , Science Daily , 19 December 2018 , accessed 30 September 2021 (Secure Cyberspace)
- Climate change could hasten deterioration of US bridge infrastructure, John Brandon, EurekAlert!, 23 October 2019, accessed 1 October 2021 (Restore and Improve Urban Infrastructure)
