Episode 4
Engineers may be the world's problem solvers, but they rarely work alone. Team work and collaboration are fundamental to engineering.
But what makes a great team?
In this episode, we’re unpacking what it means to work effectively as a team. We hear from current UQ engineering students on their experiences of teamwork at university, the challenges they’ve faced, and the skills they’ll be taking with them as they embark on their engineering careers. We also explore the power of diversity in team building, and how it can impact creativity, innovation and performance.
