Student Focus

Shashi Dhungel
I have come a long way from Nepal to India to Illinois to Maine. Prior to moving to UMO I was a graduate student at Southern Illinois University Carbondale. My decision to move to UMO was based on the research opportunity I was offered. My research involves sustainability assessment of bio-fuels supply chain.
