Carlos Gil

Carlos Gil is working toward a degree in electrical engineering with a focus on energy and power systems.

“I feel like there’s a lot I can do, especially as an electrical engineer, to help out with cleaner power for the environment,” Gil said.

He said being a Beyond Boundaries Scholar inspires him to want to make a positive impact either in the United States or in his country of origin, Columbia.

“It helps tremendously knowing there are people out there that have so much confidence in me that they’re willing to help pay for my future,” Gil said.
