Magann Dykema, originally from Norton Shores, Michigan, is a University Innovation Fellow from the Spring 2015 cohort. She is a third year student at Michigan Technological University studying Civil Engineering with a focus on Water Resourcing. She is also pursuing a certificate in Global Technological Leadership through the Pavlis Honors College and will be traveling to abroad during Summer 2017. After going on multiple mission trips during her high school career, she has found that her passion is in helping people around the world which led her to want to work in international aid and relief efforts.
Magann is a strong believer in paying it forward. Because of this, she spent the last two summers working for Michigan Tech’s Summer Youth Programs because the programs she attended played a large role in her decision in school and major. Additionally, she has spent time as an Orientation Team Leader paying it forward because the guidance from her OTL helped make the transition to college easier.
At Michigan Tech, she has been working on spreading the culture of innovation by planning and facilitating creativity, design thinking, and innovation events on campus. These include, but are not limited to, #uifresh during orientation, an elementary aged after-school class, and smaller workshops and events. She has also been a part of creating a new student organization on campus that promotes the innovative culture on campus through a makerspace, events, and resources.
When not hard at work between school, extracurriculars, and a job on campus, Magann can be found trying to relax by striking it up on the nearest lanes, enjoying a book while sitting at the nearest beach (when there is not snow on the ground), watching Gilmore Girls, exploring the outdoors, cheering on the Detroit Tigers, or creating memories with friends and family.
