⭐Senior Spotlight⭐ Michael Kryltsov

Next stop: Purdue University! 🖤 We are so proud to highlight another amazing member of the Class of 2026. Get to know them a little better below:

Future Plans: Attending Purdue University
Intended Major: Aerospace Engineering
Favorite WPS Memory: One time in my design class, we had an assignment where we were supposed to make catapults to launch the ball into a bin. After talking to the teacher and explaining my idea, we decided that I would instead accomplish this feat by DROPPING it from the air. So, I built an RC plane from scratch myself and added a payload releasing mechanism and completed the assignment once I finally dropped the ball into the bin.
Favorite Class: Design. There is just this inexplicable feeling when something you designed and built finally works. To me, design is a class I use as a means to justify more personal engineering projects (and get a grade for it).
What they'll miss most: The faculty and their constant support that they provided for me all of these years.

We can't wait to see you change the world, Michael!
