Question: Who encouraged you to study engineering?

Robert Dowdall answered on 14 Mar 2017:

I think I always wanted to be an engineer but I didn’t actually know it until an engineer came to my school and explained to me what he did. This changed my life as I could then describe in a word what I had always loved and been interested in. If you are the kind of person who likes figuring things out and solving problems then perhaps you have what it takes to be an engineer and don’t even know it. Like me!
