Description

Interested in Engineering? The St Paul's School Engineering Society is on a mission to find out how to become one. We are going to interview current Engineers, to find out what their job actually involves, Engineering students to see what studying engineering is actually like, and university advisors so we can see how to prepare ourselves to study and work in this exciting field.
