First-Generation College Student Joins ANSEP, Studies Computer Engineering

Eighteen-year-old Jeremy Chung, Yup’ik from Bethel, Alaska, enrolled in the Alaska Native Science & Engineering Program’s Summer Bridge component after his high-school graduation. Jeremy spent his summer learning and getting real-world work experience – he has his sights set on becoming a computer engineer and knows spending this summer with ANSEP will give him a leg up.

A first-generation college attendee at the University of Alaska Anchorage this fall, Jeremy says that his computer engineering dreams are finally on the horizon, thanks to his drive for success, as well as financial and academic support from ANSEP.
