I have been offered an internship through the prestigious program The Intern Group (http://www.theinterngroup.com/colombia). This is a once in a lifetime opportunity and is the most important step in my career thus far. I just need to fund it very soon, or I'll lose my place on the programme.
"You're on track for a first class Honours degree." -Dr. Douglas Henderson, a lecturer of mine, 14th of January 2016.
As we grow up we start learning about the physical laws of the universe and how we can manipulate them. I see engineering as a further development of these skills and it's my intention to complete a work placement to gain crucial industry experience, preparing me for work after academic study. Scientific research has overwhelmingly shown that our current way of life is unsustainable. Innovative techniques are needed to unlock the full potential of renewable energies, making them a more reliable source of electricity. I intend to be at the forefront of efforts to extend this research and development. I have chosen to enter into a career in the renewable energy and sustainability sector to play my part in curbing the damage our species is inflicting on the planet in order to protect its wonderfully diverse plant and animal life for future generations to experience.
So although this is a serious topic - I have decided to encourage you by giving a little incentive - I will let someone wax a strip of my body for every £10 pledged. When the pledging is over, I will video this happening for you to all enjoy!
Thank you for your time
Felix
