Isabelle Kim - Computer Science
When I was applying to college, I was unsure of what I wanted to study. As the home to many excellent departments, Stanford gave me the assurance that whatever I decided that I wanted to do, I would receive a great education. The friendly, open atmosphere of the campus made me feel like my time here would be fun as well as educational. The many opportunities available at Stanford, such as the overseas program, makes it an exciting, broad experience to be here.
What I Work On
I am currently an undergraduate junior in the Computer Science department minoring in Math and French. One of my greatest opportunities here was doing research over the summer in the Human Computer Interaction group. Doing research was a great way to break away from the assignments inherent to large classes where you solve problems that have already been solved.
Whats Great About Studying Here
The ease and encouragement of undergraduates to participate in research adds to a complete experience at Stanford. Another great aspect about being here is the people I am surrounded with everyday: from faculty who are always willing to help students, to peers who form a supportive network for everything from academics to activities.
What I Hope to Do
I plan to continue my education by getting a Computer Science MS and possibly a PhD. Eventually, I am considering teaching at either a university or high school level.
