YEPS Engineering — short for Ying Engineering Polymers — is a student-driven, self-funded research and engineering project developed individually as part of Grandview’s STEM Projects class. With a central focus on materials engineering, YEPS serves as both a creative platform and a professional foothold into the industry I aspire to join in the future. Through hands-on experimentation and independent research, this project embodies the spirit of innovation and exploration that drives modern engineering.
