Question: what was it like being the only girl studying engineering?

I was lucky to be in a very supportive school so I felt quite special choosing a degree that no one else was going to study. However I know for some it can be quite difficult going against what people expect. You have to be strong in your own decisions, and know what is right for you. It is great to talk to people about the future but remember it is your own future.
