Is Sangita Patel an Engineer?
Sangita is an engineer. She worked as an engineer until she got her professional engineering designation. During an interview she revealed that she went into engineering partly because she loved math. She was also trying to prove to herself that she could be as good as any male out there as his uncle had said that females could not be engineers.
“I went into engineering partly because I loved math and science. They were my favourite courses in high school. I think I was trying to prove to myself that I could be as good as any male out there. It was actually my uncle who said that females could not be engineers, and I think that’s the reason I did it. I
didn’t even know what engineering was all about, but I loved math and science and that’s where guys in those courses were going, so I thought why don’t I give it a try? I loved doing a lot of hands-on work with my dad – I loved to fix cars and VCRs, I fixed my Commodore 64, so it’s part of who I was, but I
didn’t really know what I wanted to do until my last two years of high school when I decided I want to be an engineer.”
