I chose Product Design and Manufacture as it combines creativity, user-based design and engineering. From a young age, I’ve loved drawing and designing and my technical and problem-solving mindset made this course was the perfect fit for me. Also, being taught a wide range of skills meant that they were very transferable and opens a lot of career path opportunities.
My favourite parts of projects are refining a concept, fine-tuning the details to ensure it meets both aesthetic and functional requirements. I also love creating CAD models, where I can be precise and accurate, making sure the product will function as intended. I found it extremely satisfying taking an initial idea and developing and transforming it into a working product, with the CAD models and renders bringing the design to life.
I am excited for the next chapter and look forward to working in the automotive industry.
