\nA: <\/strong>I was always interested in math and chemistry and have a passion for it. I knew in high school I wanted to become an engineer because of having those strong skills. Knowing that a lot of women are not in engineering, I also wanted to prove some people were wrong in telling me I should change my major and what I want to be because I wouldn\u2019t be able to do it. All that motivated me to become a chemical engineer. \u2014 Carley Schaar, Chemical Engineering Designer<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n
\nA: <\/strong>What excites me about structural engineering is being able to see your work come to life. It takes a lot of time, effort, and teamwork to be able to design and draw up a structure. Being able to see the finished product is such a rewarding feeling and it allows you to appreciate all the hard work and dedication that went into creating the structure that stands before you. \u2014 Huy Nguyen, Structural Engineering Designer<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n
\nA: <\/strong>As engineers, we are stewards of progress today, in the world we shape for tomorrow. As opportunity for innovation emerges, it becomes our responsibility to sculpt that innovation into a form that fulfills the needs of the everyday changing world. These become monuments in our timeline and beacons on the horizon, illuminating a pathway for the explorers who come after us. \u2014 Rebecca Finneran, Mechanical Designer<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n
\nA:<\/strong> To me, an innovation is simply making a better revision of something that already exists. As innovation has been growing exponentially, I hope I get to experience what it\u2019s like to drive a flying car in my lifetime. \u2014<\/em> Abby Coleman, Innovation Specialist<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n
\nA: <\/strong>As with any other invention, the usage stems from a need to make our current work more efficient. I see myself utilizing AI in its current state to further modeling and drafting work, by simplifying certain tasks, while making larger tasks more manageable. \u2014<\/em> Kidar Arjune, IMEG Mechanical Designer<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n
\nA:<\/strong> My advice is to go for it\u2014you never know what you are capable of until you try. A saying of Walt Disney, which is one I go by every day, is, \u201cIt\u2019s kind of fun to do the impossible.\u201d Because the impossible is possible if you believe you can do it. \u2014 Carley Schaar, Chemical Engineering Designer<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n
