After receiving a master’s in material sciences and engineering from UVA in 1989, Maureen O’Shea raised six children and returned to Grounds to study at the new School of Data Science.
Melissa Stark, a former sideline reporter for ABC’s “Monday Night Football” who now works for the NFL Network, has been a sports broadcasting trailblazer.

The due-diligence process is a crucial part of venture capitalism – and students from across Grounds are gaining experience in it through CAVenture, an apprentice-style program open to any student.
