From having to be a maths genius to not being great with people, misconceptions about engineers and engineering have long plagued the profession.
It’s why create spoke with a range of engineers to help bust some common myths. So if you think engineers are only good at maths and science, slide the white bar across in the tool below to learn more about engineers.
Absolutely agree! These are some great myths and misconceptions that have been highlighted and effectively debunked. Thank you. It’s cool to see that stories from engineering leaders across the ocean in another country are still similar to stories in the U.S.
As an engineer myself, I’m also a writer 🙂 And I wrote a similar, humorous article about debunking very similar myths, perhaps have an additional one in there:
