Hello, my name is Michael Milam and this is my Ohio State University student ePortfolio. On this page I will record my academic career and share my professional plans and intentions. In short, I am a Mechanical Engineering student who hopes to gain engineering skills and knowledge so that I am able to innovate products and successfully create a self-owned business one day. Before studying at The Ohio State University I attended St. Ignatius High School, a Jesuit four year college preparatory school in Cleveland, Ohio. In my four years here at The Ohio State University I hope to get into the Mechanical Engineering college and in my senior year get into the design and manufacturing concentration. I also may look into getting a minor in Entrepreneurship so that I have basic business principles in my education as well. My first two years here I will be a part of the Innovation, Creativity, and Entrepreneurship Scholars program, which is a scholar’s group that allows students with similar interests in creating their own products and/or business a place to connect and learn together. I joined this program because it fit suit with exactly every reason I came to college in the first place, and so far it has been the greatest part of my college experience.
