Be Successful in Your Life
as an Engineering
How to be successful in
your life as an engineering student in Lebanon!
In this article I will give you some advice about of the things I found important in my engineering student experience and I believe they will help you enjoy this phase of your life and get the most out of it.
1- Be active:
You need to get the most of your time! focus in class, work in the afternoon and go out at night! Don't miss out on anything! Remember, you are Lebanese!
2- Study 1 week before the exam
Who are we kidding?! Nobody studies daily!! Especially us! So after years of struggling I found it best to study 1 week before the exams! It’s more than enough!
3- Join group studies
Yes, this is important! It will surprise you the amount of information you missed! You might have even skipped an entire chapter thinking it won’t be part of the exam.
4- Work while your study and work
Work in your field! not Macdonalds, not the village ( or whatever is trending at that moment). Working in your field while you are still studying will give you a huge boost in your career! It will give you the information you need to get started after you graduate! It will give you potential job opportunity. And Let’s be honest, If I got a CV of a fresh graduate with no real experience, I don’t even read the CV.
5-Go out & meet lots of people!
Yes, this is important, being successful isn’t only about career! You need to be successful socially. It is very important that you live your life! You won’t be in your 20s again! You don’t want to look back to your life and say damn I lived a life half full!
6- Learn New Skills & especially Softwares!
As an engineer graduating within 2020, if you don’t know the right software, you are pretty much useless! (sorry for being too nice saying that) it is the true, if you are working on site, in management or as a designer! There are software for everything nowadays! You can learn a 3D site software (BIM) which eventually will be a must on sites for full coordination, as for management engineers you will need a planning software, and an analysis software for the designers!
7- Make as many connections as possible
Don’t be shy to make introduce yourself to as much people as possible! These guys are your connection! They are your strength! You need to have as much as possible! They will use your services and connections and you will use their own!n!
8- Get a Hobby
Having a hobby will let you escape your problems, responsibilities and headache during your whole life. Some, like to watch football, some like to play chess, some enjoy Gaming, what do you like to do?
9- Read about Business and specially entrepreneurship
