Welcome to the 3rd season of MessyTalks! We're so excited to welcome you back with an awesome episode about Final Year Projects (FYPs)! Whether you're in your first year or final year I'm sure you've heard of the famous Final Year Project but the question is, do you know what it is? Neither did we! Luckily, we invited two very knowledgeable guests, Amy and Arushi, to teach us everything there is to know about FYPs!

Here we go..Welcome to the finale episode of MessyTalks Season 2! This one is a bit different to all our other eps, it's slightly existential, nostalgic and reflective but definitely frickin awesome. We are joined by two fabulous people - Parmis Hassani & Tom Graves. Parmis was the CEO of Nova Rova and literally builds droids for fun while Tom is probably the most famous person in HAL who seems to have it all figured out.....

Along with Moses, we chat about uni fatigue, feelings about finishing uni, the challenge of figuring out what you want to do and the all important question - what Olympic sport would you dominate in.  

--------------------------------

To all our wonderful listeners & the MESS committee - thank you for sticking with us this far *insert heart emoji*

To Georgie, Moses, Tej & David - thank you for helping build this podcast, MessyTalks would definitely not be an award wining show without you.

To Amalia & the new W+E port - good luck, ya'll got this!

And finally to Sally and Jasmine...Well Done and Congratulations on creating a show that has been listened to over 1,940 times. You've created a platform that amplifies the voices of those doing remarkable work that sometimes goes unnoticed - thank you for persevering and for sharing this with me :)

Cara Davies is not your typical eng student, when she was 21 she co-founded a health and fitness app called Steppen, which helped thousands of young people reach their fitness goals. The start-up raised $2.1 million in venture funding and caught the attention of Afterpay and Alta. 
It was great chatting to Cara and finding out how the idea of Steppen came about, what she's working on now and how she made the decision to drop out of Engineering to work on her start-up full time. 

Thank you so much to Cara for giving us an insight into her career and her life, thank you to our editor Tej and of course to Radio Monash for allowing us to use their recording studio, chekc out their socials on insta: @radiomonash

Most of us know or have heard about Scott Wordley, he's the man behind the Engineering student teams intiative and well-known mechanical lecturer and faculty member. But who is he? how did he get where he is? and how long has he been here for? (Hint: longer than some of ya'll have been born)
Georgie, Jas & Rashi sat down with Scott and uncovered what drives him, where he sees the future of students teams and how he's working to improve female representation. 

A massive thank you to Scott for sharing his career journey and for being so open and engaging.
