Join us in congratulating one of our very own, Melissa Lepe, on receiving the LEAD Award for the School of Engineering! 🎉

Melissa’s commitment to both community engagement and academic research excellence has made a lasting impact across UCI Samueli Engineering and beyond. Her leadership and dedication truly stand out—this recognition is so well deserved! 👏 Check out the article in our bio to hear more about this recognition.

The LEAD Award honors those who champion student success and research excellence within the Chicane/Latine community at UCI and across Orange County. We’re proud to celebrate Melissa and all she continues to contribute. 💫

May the FOURTH be with you! As you make your way through midterms, remember that you are capable of more than you think! 💙💫 As Obi-Wan Kenobi would say, “The Force is with you, always.”✨🤩
