Could this be you?

“My interest is in environmental systems and how engineering solutions can be used to address environmental challenges. When I found ATCW’s undergrad pathway program at a Uni event, they were a natural fit for me. So far, I have been assisting with a flood study and some onsite work, which has given me real-world insights beyond my water engineering course at Uni.”

“Geotechnical Engineering is one of my favourite courses at RMIT, but I’ve really enjoyed working in the lab and seeing how essential investigations are to design. Getting my hands dirty, without a doubt, has been the most enjoyable task so far.”
