A new addition to our job profile section this term comes from Euan Kerr, an aeronautical engineering student at the University of Strathclyde.
Euan aims to pursue a career in engineering and appreciates that language skills will help him broaden his options and secure work overseas.
With that in mind, when Euan spent his third year studying abroad in Prague he chose to take up learning Czech as part of his studies. Having learned French at school helped him pick up a new language and making the effort to speak Czech gained respect with the local community.
So if you have pupils considering STEM subjects when they leave school, they should perhaps take a leaf from Euan's book and consider language electives too.
