Degree: Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Mechatronic)
What do you love most about your degree?
Living in multiple countries and moving houses about 18 times as a child, I got to learn about and experience many cultures and environments that were only possible due to my father’s occupation as an engineer. My love for Maths, Physics and problem solving also piqued my interest in engineering, but what really confirmed my decision was when I got to visit my dad’s office for the take-your-child-to-work day where I got to witness engineers of all disciplines and backgrounds coming together to solve complex problems! Here, I got to experience, first-hand, the importance of diversity of thought. I look forward to working abroad someday!
Why did you choose to study at UQ?
With UQ being ranked #1 in Queensland for engineering and offering the flexible first-year option, I was immediately drawn to UQ. The flexibility I had in my first year with experiencing courses from software, electrical, mechanical and civil backgrounds allowed me to explore every option before confidently settling on my Mechatronic Engineering specialisation this year.
