Engineering Faith: Two Veritas Alumni Share Their Journey of STEM Success

Liberal arts education - like what we ascribe to at Veritas - can get the (wrongly assumed) reputation of being irrelevant for modern STEM fields, thanks to what is perceived as a humanities-heavy curriculum. We cry foul on that argument - and our alumni prove it invalid as well!

Hear a conversation with two Veritas alumni who are both flourishing as engineers - Zach Spykstra (class of 2012) and Aaron Lielbriedis (class of 2020). They'll share their stories of how classical Christian education uniquely prepared them for success in their STEM fields. The conversation turns to:

• What they most appreciated - and what they would most like to change - about their Veritas education.
• How each of them maintained their faith as they navigated college and secular science fields.
• How a liberal arts education specifically equipped them for college and their careers, giving them advantages of traditionally-educated peers.
• Fun discussions on automotive and power generation technologies, and more!
