Education
What skills do you need to develop success in the course? The skills that are needed to achieve success and ones that are developed over time throughout the course are: team leadership, being able to agree on a work plan and create structure within a team in order to achieve a successful outcome. Time management is also key, in order to ensure that all projects are delivered effectively and efficiently and finally communication skills are required and developed throughout the course to ensure that success is showcased and presented. Turning projects into bigger achievementsDuring the course, I was fortunate enough to team up with my peers to create a racecar under the competition ‘Formula Student’. Mechanical engineering is very diverse in terms of the opportunities that are available, automotive was something I took a particular interest in. For this project, it was really important to be creative, innovative and ambitious. In addition to taking the time within the team to do technical research outside of class to ensure that there is a full dedication to the project. Tips for keeping up in class I have a routine to ensure that I am always on top of my work, this includes, writing notes in class in case I forget any important detail, making sure I revise over key theories and topics at home, using logic to create solutions to various problems in mechanical engineering and finally working closely with professors who share their expertise.About the Speaker:Saadeddine El Nakib is a fourth year Mechanical Engineering student studying at Heriot-Watt University in Dubai#Education #StudentStories #Students #MechanicalEngineering #HigherEducation #HigherEdSupport the show (https://www.edarabia.com/edtalk/)
