Experience Working at Apple and Tesla | Behind the Career: Manufacturing Engineering

[@kaifrahman2703]

U missed the most vital part out about the skills of a successful engineer, that is creative and analytical thinking that allows an engineer to solve problems of his/her respective field.

[@EngineeringStories]

You're right, that is definitely important and well highlighted in our other videos! Most of our Behind the Career Interviews were actually quite long so we had to cut them down and couldn't fit all of the great things our interviewees had to say.

isn't that kind of trivial?

Thanks!!

I'm just curious even though it's not super Important but why is there more females in manufactured engineering compared to other engineering fields. Is it because this focus is less blue collar specified and more white collared or am I wrong just curious.

[@Barbeiritos]

Maybe because it's a more design-related area, that requires more creative skills

[@MM3OG]

@@Barbeiritos so then it's basically a white collar job and I don't get why does society look down on males having white collar jobs?

[@Barbeiritos]

@@MM3OG that's not about society, that's about personal interests of each one

[@MM3OG]

@@Barbeiritos it is though because people judge me for getting a white collar job with a degree in information systems because when I was in the Navy I was a mechanic. Now that I'm out I wanted to change fields and my friends/family now look down upon me

UBC just started our degree in Manufacturing Engineering a few years ago and currently, the program has very few women, though it is still quite a small program. This channel specifically works to highlight the role of underrepresented populations in engineering, especially women, since they only make up about 20% of the population of practicing engineers in Canada. Hope that helps!
