Chelmsford, MA – July17, 2019 – Custom MMIC, (www.CustomMMIC.com), a leading designer and manufacturer of high performance monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs), is proud to present its annual Women in Engineering Scholarship Award to three accomplished and deserving young women who personify academic excellence in the fields of math, science and engineering. The three recipients for 2019 are: Lillian Geller (Westford Academy), Ananya Gopalan (Chelmsford High School) and Lina Abu-Absi (Groton-Dunstable Regional High School).
