      I guess it was a pretty outdated imagine of engineers as people who built machines and mines and old heavy industry stuff like that. Wheras in reality engineering is really high-tech.

      There’s loads of engineering stereotypes that aren’t true. Engineering isn’t just for white middle aged men who wear oily overalls and work with spanners. I am a female engineer and I work with world class technology in a shiny clean office 🙂
