The careful balance
Manage episode 332690937 series 2902602
Professor Kate O’Brien will be joining us as our guest for today’s podcast. Kate is the Director of Teaching and Learning for the School of Chemical Engineering at The University of Queensland (UQ) in Brisbane, Australia. She studied Maths and Engineering and UQ, then worked in an aluminium smelter in NZ before completing a phD in environmental engineering at The University of Western Australia, before returning to UQ as a Lecturer in Chemical and Environmental Engineering. In fact, she was one of the first women ever promoted to Professor in the UQ School of Chemical Engineering!
Kate uses mathematical modelling and systems analysis to investigate how socio-ecological systems work, and how they can be managed more sustainably. In this conversation we will be covering sustainability, what it's like to have a family as an engineer, and we will be discussing Kate's perception of the concept of 'work-life balance'.
This episode is hosted by two of The University of Queensland's Women in Engineering student leaders; Yu-Zhen Eva Seet and Amy Tran.
