About Me
I am a freshman studying Mechanical Engineering at Pratt. I am originally from Westchester, NY. I really enjoy anything to do with physicians and being outdoors, including fishing and hiking.
Name Pronunciation
Although it is not too hard of a name, the spelling still trips some people up. "Winslow Grifen", as I pronounce it, is "WIN-slow GRiff-en".
Current Courses and Future Track
Having just switched to Pratt, I am currently taking all the introductory engineering courses, including EGR 101, EGR 103, and EGR 121. Once I have caught up to my peers, I plan on adding either an Architecture certificate or a Physics minor to my repertoire.
Grand Challenges for Engineering
One of the Grand Challenges for Engineering in the modern era is making nuclear fusion possible and practical. Research on this topic has been happening for a long time, but only recently has significant progress emerged. Below is an article featured in National Geographic about the recent triumphs in nuclear fusion research:
