I have ADHD and desire to be a structural engineer, but I always wondered if it would be a stumbling block, and if so, how much it would be. I always did great in school and I love to think and solve complex problems… but I have developed the attention span of a squirrel. Is it hard being a structural engineer with ADHD?
@itsble

@@khloecarver When you get to a certain level you’ll be required to actively participate in meetings that can run for a long time. For me this is a challenge as I tend to lose focus after a while and get fidgety or distracted which is hard because losing focus for even 30 seconds can mean you’ve missed an important detail. My colleagues are usually ok with repeating something i’ve missed though. Another thing is depending on the project you’re working on, some tasks can be really repetitive but require lots of focus due to a lot of numbers involved. For me after a while I can find myself losing focus and making mistakes. Just take a break at that point and come back to the task. What helps me get through these kinds of tasks is putting headphones on and listening to music while I work. The modern office environment is fine with this so don’t worry if you have to do this to focus too. If people need to talk to you they’ll just tap you on the shoulder. Because I tend to lose focus and interest quickly, I enjoy my work more when I’m not doing the same thing for more than 2 days. If you can, make your employer aware of your specific needs and they’ll usually be kind enough to accommodate you. But to answer your question…you can totally still be a structural engineer with ADHD. I manage my ADHD well on my own but don’t be afraid to tell your employer when you need them to make accommodations for you. The key is to be aware of your needs that can help you do your work without discomfort. Whenever I get fidgety in a meeting, i’ll excuse myself from the room / meeting. Go to the bathroom or get some water and come back. People are not going to bat an eyelid over it really. Good luck with everything!

Without it, there are UI flaws and cumbersome workflows that could not be weeded out before nailing down the final software for delivery that actually is worth their pay and contribute to the Engineering effort.

@@BrendanHasty Yes. As GUI tester for PaineWebber's Broker Work Station, I have developed an eye or hatred for quirky, cryptic workflow paths, esp. Microsoft products. Half the time, the developers'defense is that "the brokers knows (their arcane ways to work it) the flow and you are testing it wrong! Implying, "you dummy". But that is exactly the point. GUI flow should prevent errors and not require knowing the "secret handshake"... Remember classic Citibank goof when they meant to pay installment but did not know the "secret handshake" / UI code and paid of the loan instead? Causing Citibank embarrassment and on the hooks for Millions unintended. But skills they scorn when it cost them. Losing job to cheaper, less imaginative crowd in outsourcing. C'est la vie. But in Engineering, that can cost lives as the FL Champlain Tower allures, if it were design flaw involved. Too much at risk! Remember Boeing 747 MAX?!? Reputational lost is irreplaceable damage! Reputation and Lives are PRICELESS... Dummy-proof software UI is priceless! Good old American inguinity... dummy proof processes... QA Quality Assurance... If a dummy can find your system critical errors, be humble and fix it. Serve our customers well and "Save Face" and reputation. Your company income and your job and your pay scale depend on it.

There is also lots of things that don't flow into modelling, most of the time is spent modelling as it can take time to build the model.

Hi Mouad, Cycling is great. You will need to go through engineers Australia they have several pathways. Being charted with IstructE will likely make it much easier, they may also have mutual recognition other professional engineering organisations you are a member of. They will require a little bit of adjustment but Australia standards are mostly built of Eurocode, if not ACI. Wishing you luck.

Hi Jessica, getting your masters is not required. It is better to start working, as uni and professional engineering have different skill sets. After several year of working you can go back to extent you knowledge, I would also recommend get some site experience after a couple of years in design.

I am a Structural engineering student at Texas Tech University, TX, USA. But I want to do work in the industrial sector. and also Ph.D. fascinates me in doing research as well. Please Suggest to me, sir.

Hi Sandesh, I would recommend only getting a Masters if you are looking to work in the industry. University and Professional engineers have very different skill sets. If you like to research, University is good. But typically, you only get good at one thing. So if you are interested in either Geotechnical engineering or Wind consultant, there is some benefit, but in structural/civil engineering, you need a more broad range of experience, so if considering Structural engineering, I would recommend against getting a PHD.

Hi Tran, it is hard getting your foot in the door. Have you tried some smaller firms, if you are more genuine it can be typically be lightly easier but they are taking a more risk. At a smaller firm you may offer a free trial, then preform your best. Also at interview(small or large) learn about the company to show your in the company, it is good to ask questions. A good interview should feel like a conversation. Good luck I will be making a upcoming video on interview tips.
