The Value of Taking A Left Turn | Career Trajectories with David Jennions, Ph.D.
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Have you ever noticed that music and maths often tie themselves together? Our guest this week is an excellent example of this, with his passionate start with the euphonium to his career in physics and engineering. In this continuation of our series on career trajectories, David Jennions walks us through the differences in education between the UK and US systems, his work in brining science and engineering together, and the importance of hands on apprenticeships in lab automation.
