      I’m a mechanical engineer. Mechanical engineers have quite broad ranges of skills – we don’t just learn about cars. In fact we learn much more generally about how systems work and the system could be a fridge, a car, a power station, a wind turbine – anything really! I specialise in refrigeration systems now, but I’m still a mechanical engineer.

      I am a Mechancial engineer, but also a Bio-engineer and a cryogenic engineer. This means things mechanical things, medical things, and things very very cold.
