My journey into civil engineering has been a long one. Although I have studied in the past, I was more focused in business management and environmental politics. After realizing that I no longer wanted to convince people to find solutions for problems facing our world - environmental and sustainability, bad public transport and infrastructure and so on, I decided that actually wanted to be part of the team working on these solutions, therefore becoming an real engineering was a right path to choose.
As I am new to the university system in Australia and I haven't study mathematics in some many years, I was feeling very scared at first.
Also, there were 150 students on my first year class and surprisingly only 14 women (one already gave up, so there is only 13 female students left) in my class, which sounded very daunting.
I still have a few years of university ahead of me. And as I am a mature student balancing other life commitments can be very challenging, but so far I have been able to keep up with my studies,
The road may be long, full of challenges, but it will make it to be a very interesting one as well, and I will be telling here all my adventures on my journey to become a civil engineer in Australia.
