Get stuck in and look for opportunities to learn more and get involved. This may be through work experience or after school STEM activities .Also career fairs are a good place to talk to others and seek advice.And more importantly be bold and confident and don’t be afraid to face a challenge or ask for help.

Look at what is out there, and do as much as you can. Investigate the world around you, take things apart. There is so much information out there, people willing to help and mentor you. Look into STEM activities in your local area and keep an open mind about what you think engineering involves. Get stuck in and see what happens!

Don’t give up! Engineering can be a challenge but work at it and you’ll be able to do anything you want to do in the future. If something ever seems overwhelming, take a break, hang out with some friends and then go back to it.

Have a go! Go out of your comfort zone! It may be a challenge to start with but it will be very rewarding in the end. Especially if you get the chance to be involved in Airshows like Farnborough or Paris, and take your skills out into the community to encourage the next generation. Proud of yourself because you’ve been part of the development of an engine which has just done a flypast close to where you live.

Everything is engineering, or involves engineering! As long as you have an interest in ‘things’ or how things work, you’ll be able to get into engineering at any time! Over the last 10 years, opportunities have increased exponentially, and that is likely to continue over the next 10 years too – as the old adage says – the world is your oyster!
