People in Engineering

Meet the People Shaping Our Future! Engineers and related professionals work on all kinds of projects-from everyday tools to large-scale challenges like improving infrastructure or developing cleaner technologies. You can explore their experiences in several ways:

  • Interviews share engineers’ personal stories, in their own words.
  • The Gallery of Engineering Professionals showcases individuals from a wide range of backgrounds and roles.
  • Q&A features answer visitor questions and offer a deeper look into each person’s career path-like how they got started, what they’ve learned, or what their work is really like.

Together, these stories show that there’s no single path into engineering—and many ways to make a difference.
