Each week, we will be spotlighting a Bryan Collegiate alumni and what they are doing now!

Name: Megan Welch<\/strong>

When did you graduate from Bryan Collegiate? May 2015<\/em><\/strong>

What college\/university did you attend? Texas A&M University<\/em><\/strong>

When did you graduate from your college\/university? May 2019<\/em><\/strong>

What did you major in at your college\/university? I earned a Bachelor\u2019s of Science degree in Chemistry.<\/em><\/strong>

What are you doing now? I am now a Product Development Engineer for INEOS Olefins & Polymers USA. We produce olefins, high density polyethylene, polypropylene, and polyethylene Pipe from 12 sites across the US. As a product development engineer, I work to assist any issues that may arise with the manufacturing of our products. I also help to create or improve upon our customer\u2019s needs with our product. My job role touches a little bit of every aspect of the company, which I enjoy. <\/strong>

What would you like to tell current Bryan Collegiate students?
(1) ENJOY YOUR TIME AT BCHS. Take advantage of every opportunity they give you- clubs, volunteer hours, tutoring, anything! Take it and learn from everything that you do! I promise it all will help you in the future, even if you don\u2019t realize it. (2) Take those \u201ceasy\u201d classes serious!!!!! That A in an \u201ceasy\u201d class weighs the same amount on your GPA as making an A in a harder class. So don\u2019t let up just because it\u2019s easy! It can really save you when things get tough. (3) If BCHS hasn\u2019t taught you already, get a daily hourly planner. Plan out your days by the hour, your study times, workout times, time with friends, whatever it may be!<\/strong>
