Vivian Nnoka

If your best friend had to describe you in 10 words or less, what would she say?    
Optimistic. Big dreamer. Perseverant. Free-spirited.  Knowledgeable.

What do you want to accomplish in the next 10 years?
I want to combine being a Hollywood actress and owning my power distribution company in Nigeria.

Who is the most inspiring engineer you know or have heard of?
Rowan Sebastian Atkinson (Mr. Bean) because he got the degree of MSc in electrical engineering which made him become an honorary fellow but yet pursued his career in theatre, film and television.

Why did you choose your program of study?
Electrical engineering is simply the one aspect of engineering that appeals to me.  It provides me with the theoretical knowledge I need to get involved in the power sector after graduation.

What has been your favourite course?
ELEC 3908 – Physical Electronics. While examining the structure and physical operation of semi-conductor diodes and transistors, this course uniquely tested my critical thinking and problem solving skills.

What has been the best part of your engineering education?
Taking on a project of building the “salty dogg” robot in an amazing team. The salty dogg is an autonomous household small-scale robot that dispenses salt on icy paths during winter.
