What do you love most about your degree?
I love the challenge that comes with my degree. I am constantly being driven out of my comfort zone to further investigate my approaches to the problems given to me. It makes me reach out for help and view problems and questions from a different point of view.
Have you participated in any internships / work? If so tell us a bit about it, what did you enjoy most about the experience?
Yes, I have taken a 6-week internship program by Mass Electronics, working in the manufacturing department. It was a splendid experience in terms of learning and growing as a person. The company focused on PCB circuit boards. Due to my limited knowledge in this industry, I had to constantly learn about it which was highly enjoyable. It forced me to constantly ask questions and develop connections with the team. I found this challenge to be highly enjoyable.
