Each week in Just the Fax, we will profile one of the recipients of our 2020 Richard McKeagan Scholarship Series. This week’s recipient is Manuel Lemos, who received his scholarship from sponsor Masco Delta.
Manuel is a student at McMaster University in the third year of the Mechatronics Engineering program. Manuel explains that, “Mechatronics engineering, at its core, is the engineering of robotics. This is a valuable asset to the mechanical industry as the future will likely be dominated by automation.”
One of the many reasons he was chosen as recipient, according to Gary Barrington of Masco Canada, was because Manuel, “takes pride in volunteering his time and passing down his learnings to younger groups of potential university graduates, while continuing to remain a high standard of academics.”
Manuel’s father is employed at MCAC member company Hoffer Mechanical.
