"I decided to study Environmental & Civil Engineering with an Industrial Placement year at Queens University Belfast due to the broad and exciting career prospects it provides. At university, my passion for Environmental and Civil Engineering has continually grown due to the unwavering support from lecturers and interesting projects we have been exposed to. Completing an industrial placement throughout my degree has helped me to gain practical experience to complement the theoretical knowledge gained within Queens."
