Engineering Month ‑ Mila Maclean

Posted by stephanie rogers on March 12, 2021 in News

Name: Mila Maclean, Class of

Current employer:  IMP Aerospace

Position: 
Program Director

Why did you choose engineering:  I discovered during my Animal Science degree that I really liked Math.  So, when I finished that, I moved into Engineering and picked Industrial as a discipline.  

Favourite part of your career:  There’s never a dull moment.  

Biggest challenge:  There’s never a dull moment.  I did that twice on purpose - the challenges I face in this role aren’t usually things I could have predicted.  

What advice would you give to a student considering a career in engineering:  You are allowed to make mistakes.  In fact I encourage you to make mistakes!  It’s the best way to learn and find new solutions.  All that I ask is that you own it and then fix it.
