Degree: Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Electrical and Biomedical)


Who or what made you choose to study this?


With my mum being an electrical engineer and dad a doctor, they both inspired me to work in fields similar to their own. I thought I could make the greatest difference in this field.


What do you love most and what has been your favourite course?


The problem-solving and coding courses are great. ENGG1300 (Introduction to Electrical Systems) has a good balance between maths and real-world applications.
