Engineering Student Receives President's Citation Award

 Electrical engineering student Jazmin Pantoja was honored with the prestigious President's Citation Award by the San Diego County Engineering Council at its annual awards ceremony on Feb. 19.

The recognition is a testament to Pantoja’s outstanding leadership and significant contributions to the advancement of the Tikkun Olam Makers (TOM) Club, Society of Women Engineers (SWE) and Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE).

Electrical engineering professor Reza Kamali noted that Pantoja’s dedication and initiative has played a pivotal role in fostering an inclusive and supportive environment for aspiring engineers, thereby enriching the engineering community. Her efforts have not only facilitated greater engagement among her peers but have also served to inspire and empower the next generation of engineering leaders.

It is the second straight year that a CSUSM student received the President’s Citation. Sean Resor was honored in 2023.
