Michael Loughhead
Engineering graduate
Mechanical Design Engineer, Air Radiators
The projects fostered development of transferable skills to any workplace. Stakeholder relations, time management, leadership, critical decision making, and application of theoretical knowledge are all skills that I have taken to my internships and professional life.
Katie Semmens
Engineering graduate
Project Engineer, Barwon Water
Deakin's project-based learning styles prepared me for work-based placements and then for work, because I was used to working in teams with diverse backgrounds and making sure that I understood people's perspectives, which is really important to finding the end solution.
