Biography
“I did Engineering because I loved Maths and Design & Communication Graphics (DGC) in school and I always wanted to know how buildings stand up and work. I originally thought I wanted to be an Architect but then realised my understanding of what an Architect does was slightly wrong and then Civil Engineering just seemed right.”
“The course itself is by no means easy but with a good attitude, good friends and a good balance of a social life and a study life it's manageable. I've learned so much about not only the practical elements to do with Civil Engineering but also the theory while at UCC and I really feel a lot of what I know is down to the style/calibre of lectures we have at UCC.”
I am currently working in London and I am loving every minute of it... even the 1 hour commute to and from work!”
