Career Field Chemical Engineering at Washington University
I believe that choosing a wide range of study interests and extracurricular activities while at Millikin truly helped to shape my future. College is a trial run for real life so it is the time to attempt something you’ve always wanted to try but never thought you could do.
A recent graduate from Lexington High School in Lexington, Illinois, Heather Jones chose to pursue higher education at Millikin University. She was attracted to Millikin’s small class size, and the opportunity to learn from professors who were experts in their field. At the time she knew she wanted to study chemistry, and was interested in Millikin’s pre-pharmacy track.
