IGE Professor for a Day
Rebecca Mikhaylov, assistant section managaer at JPL.

The Department of Interdisciplinary General Education (IGE) will host Rebecca Mikhaylov, an assistant section manager at Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in Pasadena as Professor for a Day on Thursday, March 11.

Mikhavlov, who holds a bachelor’s degree in aerospace engineering from Cal Poly Pomona, manages JPL’s Payload and Small Spacecraft Mechanical Engineering section.  

As a former IGE student, one of her formidable college experiences was meeting lifelong friends in the IGE Program, which she completed in 2001. She will be speaking about how the program was able to help her develop critical thinking and communication skills that led to several promotions at JPL.   

Join us on Zoom as we hear about her IGE experience:
