Engineering 101
Show Notes

4th March is World Engineering Day for Sustainable Development, and we’re publishing two blogs written by some engineering undergrads about their experience studying engineering. But after speaking with our Youth Advisory Board (a group of teens who we work with once a term), we realised that Engineering is a bit of a generic term. So we’re releasing this one off episode at the same time as the blogs to give you some ideas about the different types of engineering out there.

Thank you to Dr Dimitris Statharas for speaking to us about studying and working in engineering.
