About Me

I am a student in the Pratt School of Engineering at Duke University. I plan to study biomedical engineering.

Name Pronunciation

My name is Margaret Lund, but I prefer to be called Meggie. "Meggie" is like "Megan" and "Maggie" put together. "Lund" is pronounced "Lund," just like it looks, rather than "Loond."

Current Courses

• EGR 103
• Math 212
• Chemistry 101
• Psychology 101

Interests

I love running, reading and yoga. My favorite movie is Elf and my favorite TV show is The Mentalist.

Homework Assignments

• Grand Challenges for Engineering
  • Consumer Health Informatics, Gunther Eysenbach, British Medical Journal, updated 24 June 2000, accessed 15 September 2013 (Advance Health Informatics)
• MATLAB Help and Demonstrations
  • My favorite demonstration was the '3-D Plotting' section. Not only do the 3-D graphs look far more interesting than standard 2-D graphs, but I am also learning studying multivariable vectors and graphs in my math class. I enjoy seeing how the concepts I learn in math can be applied to engineering topics. In addition, I liked the 'Viewing a Penny' demonstration -- I had never previously considered the topography of a penny or how a penny could be depicted in a surface plot.
