Sharing Thoughts on Engineering Careers in PE Magazine

In the December 2011 issue of PE magazine, a national publication produced by the National Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE), Anne Schroer was one of 19 Young Engineer Award winners asked questions regarding their thoughts on recruiting and retaining the next generation of engineers. Anne stated that she learned about the profession after taking career quizzes and that she was not aware of the possibility in high school.

The 19 engineers were asked questions on whether they felt engineers were born, made, or both. Anne said she felt engineers were both. “Engineers have a certain way of thinking… but they would probably never become engineers without being introduced to the profession.” And if Anne hadn’t been an engineer? She would have chosen finance!

We’re glad she decided to be an engineer.
