      18 I guess because that’s when I started my undergraduate degree. I am now 25 and I still haven’t left university, although what I do now is like having a job rather than being a student.

      I was 18 when I got my first engineering internship, 19 when I started my engineering degree in university and 23 when I started my first professional engineering job. I am 24 years old now 🙂
