Student Biolography

Jonathan Ebersole is currently in his 5th year of study in the Architectural Engineering Program at the Pennsylvania State University. He will graduate in May of 2014 with a Bachelor degree of Architectural Engineering, with a focus on structural systems. Jonathan is a member of several professional student organizations such as the Student Society of Architectural Engineers and Penn State Structural Engineers Association. Upon graduation in May, he will have attained Engineer-In-Training (E.I.T.) status.

During the past three summers, Jonathan shadowed a local contractor, Bill Sabold Building and Remodeling, designed and began construction on a basement renovation project for his family, and participated in a structural engineering internship with Webber/Smith Associates, Inc., an architectural and engineering company that deals with food production and storage facilities. These experiences gave him a perspective of working in the field as well as in the design office with a multitude of different projects. Jonathan is eager to work at a consulting firm or AE firm as a structural engineer in order to gain experience and knowledge that he will later use to obtain his P.E. license.

In his free time over the summer, Jonathan enjoys participating in camping and hiking events with his local Boy Scout troop. After obtaining his Eagle Scout Award in 2009, he remains an active participant in his scout troop by serving as Assistant Scout Master and by guiding younger scouts down the path to Eagle Scout.
