Day 5: LHC, Graphene and COD4

We had another day of busy live chats and lots of questions asked again, which the mods are tirelessly approving and sending to the engineers. Next week, evictions start on Tuesday, so remember to VOTE for your favourite engineer!

Today’s highlights:

  • Samer compares himself to a sailor.. Navigating the LHC:

The LHC seems like a truly amazing thing to work on. Do you still think it is amazing every day, or has the novelty worn off?

  • Dan is nostalgic about the discovery of graphene:

Do you think that graphene has a potential to change future? have you ever worked with it?

  • Ben explains the basics of automotive engineering:

what is does a degree in automotive entail?

  • Gary discusses equality in the workplace:

Whats your opinion on sexual inequality and bias stereo-typically involved in engineering and how it can be overcome?

  • And Amanda admits to playing games at work and explains why she’s doing IAS:

aston1234 : what is the best aspect of being an engineer ?x
amandalewin : @aston I get to travel a bit, my work gets built in bricks and glass for everyone to see and me to brag about, I get lots of variety, and I get to play COD4 at lunch time. It’s all good x

katie12332 : what do you get out of doing this website thing
amandalewin : @katie I like to tell kids about engineering because I didn’t know anything about it before doing my Alevels. We need more engineers and especially more girls!
