Engineer It
Temporada 1
por Brayden Sprickerhoff
In this episode, Dr. Robin Zhao from McMaster University explains what porous media is and why engineers should care about it. We explore where it appears in the real world, current research in the field, and how students can get involved in this type of research.
In this episode, Dr. Ousmane Hisseine from McMaster University discusses sustainable infrastructure, low‑carbon concrete innovations, and how students can get involved in research and engineering projects that make a real-world impact. He also shares insights from his latest work and advice for aspiring engineers navigating research and careers in civil engineering.
Biomedical engineering blends medicine, biology, and engineering to create innovative healthcare solutions. In this episode, we explore Iman Shafieloo’s work as a product innovator and project manager at TruDell Medical, discuss exciting projects he’s working on, and hear what inspired him to pursue a career in biomedical engineering.
Concrete isn’t usually thought of as “green,” and research isn’t always on students’ radar. This episode dives into sustainable concrete and what getting involved in research can actually look like.
Civil engineering offers far more paths than most students realize. This episode breaks down structural and seismic engineering while discussing graduate school and advanced study in civil engineering.
Geotechnical engineering forms the backbone of civil infrastructure. This episode examines foundation design, field work, and what students should know about careers in geotechnical engineering.
Aerospace programs don’t run on engineering alone. This episode breaks down the program manager’s role at Bombardier and how engineers move into positions that sit at the center of complex aircraft development.
Choosing an engineering path can feel overwhelming without real insight. This introductory episode of Engineer It explains the vision behind the podcast and what future conversations will uncover.
