"I
have always been motivated toward achievement. The professional
training in machining and manufacturing and, more importantly,
in solving engineering problems provides me a solid foundation
for my future career. A Ph.D. is a prerequisite in order to move
up the career ladder. I am climbing one level higher by pursuing
my Ph.D. at the University of Alabama."

Raminta
Daniulaityte, a native of Lithuania, completed her master’s
degree in the cooperative program in anthropology at UA and UAB.
Currently a Ph.D. student in the School of Social Work, she is
focusing on health care, especially with ethnically diverse
populations, and has publications and presentations on family
planning initiatives among the Highland Maya of Guatemala. She
is pursuing a dissertation study in Mexico that investigates the
relationship between gender roles and Type 2 diabetes and was
selected to receive a University of Alabama Graduate Council
Dissertation Fellowship to assist with her research project.
Following graduation, she plans to work in the area of social
and health service education and research and to contribute to
improvement of health and social service delivery to ethnically
diverse groups.

"After
I got my master's degree two years ago, I felt I still needed to
know more about mechanical engineering. The University of
Alabama has a good reputation and a qualified faculty. I believe
that my graduate study at this university will help me achieve
my goal.
A variety of courses and
state-of-the-art facilities are provided by the Department of
Mechanical Engineering. I am not only able to concentrate on my
specific research but also have opportunities to study in
related fields. My adviser's instruction and encouragement also
make my study more fruitful and enjoyable."
