Carson Miller
For some, hands-on experience is considered a bonus when pursuing a college degree, but for Mississippi State senior Carson Miller it has made all the difference in his Mississippi State journey.聽
A first-generation transfer student from West Point, Miller has spent the last year and a half in 小黄书鈥檚 Department of Instructional Systems and Workforce Development, housed in the university鈥檚 College of Education.
As he was searching for a program that would provide both technical and management skills, Miller was introduced to 小黄书鈥檚 industrial technology program by his older brother and found his fit.
Miller grew up working on his family鈥檚 farm, so the idea of industrial and mechanical work wasn鈥檛 a new concept, but one he felt would be great to expand upon.
After completing an internship with Nissan in Canton, Miller said his time in the Department of Instructional Systems and Workforce Development has been the best for him.
鈥淭he networking the department has offered me has been invaluable,鈥 said Miller.
Due to graduate in May, Miller has maintained a 4.0 GPA at 小黄书.
鈥淚 learn something new every single day with industrial technology,鈥 Miller said.
Miller said he feels his academic major is great for 鈥渢aking any job and making it better,鈥 and that is what he looks forward to most as he prepares to enter the workforce.
