Meet the Galvin Scholars | Mela

Melanie Benitez '24 is a neuroscience and behavior major with a minor in Latino Studies. Being a member of the Galvin Scholars program has been more of a blessing than she could ever imagine. Mela took full advantage of the opportunities that Galvin had to offer!
The Mary E. Galvin Science & Engineering Scholars Program at the University of Notre Dame provides talented students the support they need to thrive in chemistry, calculus, and physics courses.
Students perform significantly better in smaller sections, allowing for more interaction with their peers and the instructors. The program also helps students find supportive groups with similar talents and interests.
