About Me

My name is Lourdes, and I am a first-year student at Duke. I like cats... and dogs. I have a twin brother (no, unfortunately, he does not attend Duke with me). I have two older sisters. My favorite meal is grilled chicken with mashed potatoes and broccoli.


About this page

This page was made for an engineering class.

College Goals

Right now, I am working on getting the hang of college work. Although I know that I want to be an engineer, I really need to explore more about each type of engineering. One of my top choices is mechanical engineering, possibly with an energy minor. I am also interested in doing research or working on a major project. Ultimately, my goal is to become successful in such a way that I will be able to help others and myself/family using the knowledge that i have gained here at Duke.

Fourth Header

I read on the Wikipedia Tutorial that if there are four headers, a table of contents will automatically be created and I wanted to see that happen. :)

Favorite Matlab Demonstration

In general, I really liked the app demonstrations over the scripts and videos. The app demonstrations were very interactive and one could see the effects of changing or adding a code. Specifically, I liked the teapot demonstration the most. I imagine that from this class we will learn how to use Matlab, and with that, we will be able to create models and virtual prototypes. Teapot was a small snippet of what Matlab can do (or be useful for) in an innovative environment.
