Vikram’s Day
Vikram Louis Michael is a mechanical engineering graduate student.
He is interested in pursuing a career in biorobotics and is one of more than 5,500 international students at UTD, coming to campus all the way from India. Vikram chose UTD because of the campus’ proximity to Dallas along with the research opportunities.
In addition to his coursework, Vikram is a student worker at the on-campus Starbucks. He also enjoys campus activities such as MMA club and University Recreation’s intramural soccer league along with hanging out at the American Tap Room at Northside.
