Building Construction Science

Hunter Bullock

Why did you choose 91��Ƭ��atMSU?

I saw the different opportunities that our many programs had available. I also saw how immersive the Building Construction Science Program was. The idea of a studio instead of a lecture class for learning was a more ideal situation for me as a student.

Favorite spot on campus?

The Chapel of Memories.

If you could go back and tell your high school self one thing, what would it be.

Don’t stress about everything. It will all work out in the end.
