For our final episode of 'But seriously, what is Engineering?' for Season 2, we invited four of The University of Queensland's Women in Engineering Student Leaders to answer your questions about studying engineering, choosing your specialisation, and planning for the future!
This is a fun, candid chat with our incredible student leaders, and is a great way to get an insight into university life. Perhaps you'll find that engineering might be the perfect career path for you too!
This episode features four of The University of Queensland's Women in Engineering student leaders; Yvette (Evie) Gibbon, Kathleen Cox, Laura Musgrave and Sophie Bates.

The careful balance
Professor Kate O’Brien will be joining us as our guest for today’s podcast. Kate is the Director of Teaching and Learning for the School of Chemical Engineering at The University of Queensland (UQ) in Brisbane, Australia. She studied Maths and Engineering and UQ, then worked in an aluminium smelter in NZ before completing a phD in environmental engineering at The University of Western Australia, before returning to UQ as a Lecturer in Chemical and Environmental Engineering. In fact, she was one of the first women ever promoted to Professor in the UQ School of Chemical Engineering!
Kate uses mathematical modelling and systems analysis to investigate how socio-ecological systems work, and how they can be managed more sustainably. In this conversation we will be covering sustainability, what it's like to have a family as an engineer, and we will be discussing Kate's perception of the concept of 'work-life balance'.
This episode is hosted by two of The University of Queensland's Women in Engineering student leaders; Yu-Zhen Eva Seet and Amy Tran.
