Degree: Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Civil)
Who or what made you choose to study this?
I am passionate about building construction and structural designs. As a child, my dad who is an engineer always shared his great love for Engineering and Mathematics with me. He bought me Lego bricks and sculpt models, and encouraged me to think out of the box and explore not only how something was built but also how it worked. I was amazed by how those small elements came together and did wonders. Growing up, I developed a great interest in buildings and structures which further shaped my decision of pursuing a Civil Engineering degree.
Why did you choose to study at UQ?
I chose to study at UQ because of its global reputation, excellent campus lifestyle, and the career-focused programs offered. As an international student, I would say UQ provides excellent student support which helps me transitioning between different education systems and adjusting my new life in a foreign country.
What do you love most about your degree?

The courses in my degree allow me to deep dive into a subject that I am passionate about, enhance my technical and soft skills, and most importantly provide me with the industry network that takes me one step closer to obtaining the career of my dream.
