My name is Mike Tran and I am currently a senior double-majoring in Geography (General Track) and International Affairs. This semester I am studying Arabic abroad under the Boren Scholarship. I plan on returning in the spring to finish my last semester at CU.
I started my time at CU as an International Affairs major, but I loved my Geography classes, so (with strong backing from Dr. Abby Hickcox in the Geography department) I decided to extend my time at CU, adding Geography as a second major this past spring.
Since then I have been able to work on a couple of research projects within the Geography Department. These included helping Professor Colleen Reid with her research on the effects of wildfire smoke on children鈥檚 health. I was also part of Earth Lab where I was able to learn data science and programming skills and then apply them to a research project aiming to find the correlation听鈥媌etween snowpack and streamflow levels of the upper baby直播app River.
