We have a fantastic opportunity for pupils entering this years 'If You Were An Engineer, what Would You?' competition to pick up some tips up in developing their own ideas!

Tim Whitcher is Deputy Service Leader for Digital Railway and has spent the last decade introducing cutting edge technology to the railway and trying to get the industry away from colour lights on sticks to radio controlled trains. Tim’s job is about delivering a complete solution which usually means getting hands-on and solving all sorts of problems you don’t expect. Tim holds a BEng(Hons) in Electromechanical Engineering from the University of Southampton, Certificate in Systems Engineering from the University of Oxford and an MBA from the University of Leicester.

The 'If You Were An Engineer, What Would You?' competition - will be hosting our popular Live Online Engineer Events throughout the remainder of the academic year so that pupils/students can continue to work on their projects or, for those individual pupils/students that have recently registered, start work on the programme.

This interview will begin with a 10-15 minute presentation by a professional engineer, they will tell you about what they do and how they got there. The presentation will be followed by a Q&A session where you will have the opportunity to ask the engineer about their life and work. So, before the interview you may want to prepare a few questions!
