Maggie Brown is a University Innovation Fellows at Wichita State University. She is a sophomore studying Aerospace Engineering with a minor in Mathematics. Since she was young, Maggie has shown an interest in space exploration and travel. This interest lead her to wanting to become an engineer and later introduced her to design thinking.

Maggie Brown is a University Innovation Fellow from the Fall 2018 Cohort. She is working on an undergraduate degree in Aerospace Engineering with a minor in Mathematics from Wichita State University. While she is studying engineering, Maggie has a passion for education. During the school year, she works as a Teaching Assistant for the class AE 512: Experimental Methods in Aerospace Engineering where she facilitates labs that demonstrate how to perform wind tunnel tests. During the summer, she directs camps at the Cosmosphere, a space museum in Hutchinson, Kansas.
  
Maggie first found an interest in using design thinking during her first semester at Wichita State when she took the freshman seminar Introduction to Technology and Innovation. This course came with the requirement to use the design thinking process, which was taught in class, to come up with a product. She and her team created a revolutionary doorstop called Lyfelock that was created as an extra barrier to be put in place during an emergent hostile situation in a school setting. The team was one of the five teams to qualify for the final round of the Koch Innovation Challenge. In the end, Lyfelock won the People’s Choice award.
 
  
Since joining UIF, Maggie has been working on a project called Shocker Study Spaces. While interviewing students at Wichita State, she noticed many students said they were going to the same two locations on campus to study, but not really enjoying being there. Upon further investigation, it was realized that there were many other places to study on campus, students just didn’t know those places were there. Shocker Study Spaces will create maps of campus to raise awareness of these great study places so that students can truly use the space given to them.

Maggie was recently recognized as an Outstanding Undergraduate Student Leader at Wichita State University for her involvement. On top of being a University Innovation Fellow, she has also been involved with Gamma Phi Beta and Start Up Grind U, where she held many leadership position. In her time at Wichita State University she has also competed, and placed in many design competitions, including, the Koch Innovation Challenge, Shocker New Venture, Invent for the Planet, and the Airbus Wing Box Challenge. She loves sharing information with others and was a featured speaker at the 2020 Women in STEAM Gala and a student presenter for the 2019 Midwest Section ASEE Conference.
  
Outside of UIF, Maggie is involved in several activities. She a member of Gamma Phi Beta as well as the Honors College. She spent her freshman year living the in the Engineering Living Learning Community, which is a floor of the dorms that is made entirely of engineers so that students can get to know each other and support each other in classes. She is also an Engineering Ambassador which allows her to tell prospective engineering students about her experiences at Wichita State.
