First and foremost I absolutely love Edinburgh as a city! The opportunity to study at such a prestigious institution and one of the best universities in the UK, while living in such an incredible city, was an opportunity I will forever be thankful for.
MEng (Hons) Structural Engineering with Architecture, 2021
Why did you choose to study at the University of Edinburgh?
I wanted to work on historic buildings conservation, but my background was in STEM subjects. The University of Edinburgh's MEng Structural Engineering with Architecture course was a great match, since I could study architectural history and design.
During my third year of study, I decided to change career path from the field of civil engineering to data science. I applied to many places in Europe, and got an offer to join Amazon for a data science internship in Luxembourg.
Why did you choose to study at the University of Edinburgh?
Primarily, Edinburgh is a great place to live. Not only is the city really beautiful, there are events happening all year round and loads of opportunities to explore Scotland. The engineering programme had a broad range of options which was key for me as I didn't want to specialise too early.
Continuum mechanics approaches have been used to model the mechanical behaviour of biological (and active) systems at length scales that are large enough.
The School of Engineering is to lead two doctoral training centres (CDTs) to equip PhD students with key skills needed by the defence and security and renewable energy sectors.
