Engineering Change | Katie Cresswell-Maynard | TEDxBathUniversity

Katie never thought she'd be an engineer, in fact she didn't even know that engineers existed for the first 17 years of her life. Today she is a full blown enthusiast of what engineers can do to make the world a better place for everyone. As Chief Executive of Engineers Without Borders UK, she has the privilege of leading some of the most exciting engineering projects in the world at the forefront of achieving the Sustainable Development Goals and inspiring the next generations of engineers to make a positive choice about how they choose to invest their engineering skills. Because engineers really are key to changing how we all live, engineers really can make our dreams possible.
