    U missed the most vital part out about the skills of a successful engineer, that is creative and analytical thinking that allows an engineer to solve problems of his/her respective field.

      You're right, that is definitely important and well highlighted in our other videos! Most of our Behind the Career Interviews were actually quite long so we had to cut them down and couldn't fit all of the great things our interviewees had to say.

    I'm just curious even though it's not super Important but why is there more females in manufactured engineering compared to other engineering fields. Is it because this focus is less blue collar specified and more white collared or am I wrong just curious.

      Maybe because it's a more design-related area, that requires more creative skills

      UBC just started our degree in Manufacturing Engineering a few years ago and currently, the program has very few women, though it is still quite a small program. This channel specifically works to highlight the role of underrepresented populations in engineering, especially women, since they only make up about 20% of the population of practicing engineers in Canada. Hope that helps!
