Professional Bachelor’s Degree, ENSTIB Class of 2022, Engineering Student, ENSTIB Class of 2026

After obtaining a DUT in Civil Engineering at the IUT of Egletons, I decided to specialise in an environmentally friendly material: wood. I joined the Professional Bachelor’s degree at ENSTIB, specialising in Wood Construction, through an apprenticeship at SMC2. There, I applied the knowledge and skills I acquired during my training. My personal qualities and skills were not fully utilised in a technician role, so I sought out careers that might suit me better. Drawn to the process department at SMC2, I chose to continue my studies at ENSTIB in the engineering programme, still alternating at SMC2, with the goal of becoming a process engineer. During this year of professional Bachelor’s at ENSTIB, I developed a career plan that encouraged me to continue my engineering training. Aware of the significant step this represented, I made every effort to achieve the best results. At the end of the year, I took refresher courses in chemistry and physics. I was supported and advised by the teachers, who helped me believe in my career plan and make it a reality.
