      Engineering is really fun (most of the time!) sometimes I feel like Dr. Frankenstein when I’m designing something. You do all the science and maths behind it and then it comes to life!

      Also, engineers are generally really cool and know how to have a good time. As you usually work in a team, you have a great laugh and help each other through the more challenging times.

      I have a lot of fun doing my job! With engineering every day is different and there are always new things to mess around with and figure out. I think that’s one of the best things about being an engineer and definitively something that suits my personality.

      Engineering is not so much fun as rewarding. I get a great a great sense of achievement when I solve a problem or make a good decision. The fun part for me is the traveling I get to do and the people I meet as part of my job.

      Yes! 90% of the time I’m having a good time at work. It’s a series of puzzles to be solved. To me, that’s fun.
