This episode we delve into the intricacies and nuances of renewable energy! We are joined by Deputy Director of Monash Energy Institute and Senior Lecturer in the Monash University Civil Engineering Department, Roger Dargaville. Not only do we dive into the various types of renewables Australia harnesses, Roger also shares his wisdom on the myriad of factors that impact Australia's transition to renewables, such as economics, policy and human behaviour. We explore the complexities of the National Energy Market and why Australia urgently requires more engineers working within the renewable energy landscape and so much more...

Content warning: This episode discusses themes of mental health.
Today we explore the topic of gender through the lens of engineering. We are joined by the incredible Lily Curtis, a sociologist and current PhD student, who shares her expertise on how our gender identities can have an influence on our daily lives and why this is important to understand as future engineers. We discuss how gender impacts the frameworks in which we live and work, the harm that comes from perpetuating stereotypes and the importance of having diverse and inclusive teams.
Through this discussion we aim to shed light on the intersection of gender and engineering and help to raise awareness and normalise discussions on these topics as we embark on our engineering careers. This episode is not one to miss!
A very big thank you to Lily for generously sharing her knowledge with us.

We are thrilled to welcome the 2022 MESS president and recent exchange-goer Grace Boxer to the studio to divulge invaluable insights all about her recent study abroad, plus heaps of tips and advice for things she learnt along the way. We delve into making friends overseas, juggling study with uni life and finding confidence moving to the other side of the world alone. Grace shares her experience with us from meeting her flatmates to the readjustment back home and everything in between.
Planning to go on exchange or curious about what actually happens during study abroad? This episode is not one to miss!

This episode, we are thrilled to be joined with Alson, a representative from Rockwell Automation, as we discuss the future of engineering. Graduating with degrees in Mechatronics Engineering and Computer Science, Alson speaks to the importance of communication skills in progressing in the workforce and why he prefers the work lifestyle over university lifestyle (it get's better?? We were shocked as well).
We then delve into the work of Rockwell Automation, including the benefits of streamlining processes in order to increase efficiency and therefore profit, as well as its potential to decarbonise high pollutant industries.
Wanna find out how we, as future engineers, may play a role in this? Listen in to hear more!
Big thank you to Alson and Rockwell Automation for agreeing to be on this episode. We are very grateful for our long-term partnership with them.

Today, we are honoured to have the opportunity to hear from one of our favourite educators, the incredible Tony Vo!
As the current Director of Education for the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering and previous Director of First-Year Studies, we will delve into Tony's career trajectory and the valuable lessons he has learned along the way.
We will also explore the academic pressures of engineering, including the stigmatisation of asking for help and how to finish your university degree in a way that aligns with your current abilities or capacity to do so.

Hey there, fellow engineering students at Monash! Are you tired of trying to navigate this complex and challenging field on your own? Well, fear not! MESS (Monash Engineering Students' Society) is here to support you in all your engineering endeavours.
In our VERY FIRST podcast, our lovely hosts, Jasmine Pepe (General Representative) and Sally Bertoncello (Wellbeing & Equity Director), will be introducing MESS and describe the ways we support engineering students through our four portfolios: Academic, Industry, Social, and Wellbeing & Equity.
Then, we grill some engineering students in their natural habitat (the HAL and the Moff) and ask them all the hard-hitting questions about studying engineering at Monash. We're talking the best study spots, the best spots to break down in tears, and everything in between. If you want the inside scoop on how to thrive during your uni experience, you better tune in!
