CEA - Why It's Inspiring to be a Civil Engineer (and You Should Be Too!) with Ghanim Kashwani
Is civil engineering a good career choice? 🤔 In today’s episode, Dr. Ghanim Kashwani talks about why it is! He’s the first CEng in the UAE with both academic and hands-on experience, currently leading applied research efforts to translate academic discoveries into useful products for the industry. He also talks about the academic vs experience debate, the impact of AI, a topic engineer should study but usually neglect, and more! It’s all in here. 😉
Tune in to Learn:
His journey to become the first Chartered Engineer (CEng) in the UAE
An international trend regarding professional certifications — and why it matters
What is the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE) and how did it start?
A Japanese concept that led to his PhD — and how it can help with your life as well
The Academia vs Experience debate: Are they really opposites?
A method to give on-the-job experience to students in school — and it's not internships!
Fundamental vs Applied Research: This is what made Edison more known than Tesla
2 non-engineering topics every civil engineer should get handle of
How AI will change the civil engineering industry — and how you can adapt to it
His #1 piece of advice for young professionals for a successful career
The right definition of civil engineering you’ve never been told before
