 Anything that moves probably has a team of mechanical engineers behind it. It's a fun discipline where it's different to civil and electrical. Civil, everything doesn't move. Mechanical, everything moves. Electrical, electrons are moving around but we can't see them. So mechanical we can see, see what's moving. Mechanical engineering has many career opportunities that's very broad. We'll have mechanical engineers working in design work in high-tech areas like aerospace, vehicle development, biomedical areas, developing artificial limbs or mechanical hearts. Behind me you may see an aircraft which is my final year project at Griffith. Everything here is very hands-on. All four years we've had a lot of laboratories where we've done a lot of physical experiments which had really helped me lead up to my experiment that I did in my final year. In each of my classes I find that there's always something for me to do that gets me involved, gets me interested and it really applies to all of the textbook knowledge that I've learnt in my lectures and practical things which I think that I could then apply to industry experience as well. So what Griffith offers is some great opportunities to go do industry work, industry placement programs during their courses. It's a part of their course and the flexibility is there but it's up to the graduates to take advantage of that and for those that do, there are certainly benefits. When they turn up for interviews, turn up for jobs, they've got that start that gets them through the door and into the interview. I like to think that the Griffith degree has a very good hands-on component. It's not just a set of equations and formulas that they need to pass an exam. We aim to get them to make that connection and find that this theory is actually useful to design something, to build something, to do something really useful for the world.
