Lawn mower engines have never particularly interested Dee Tress. Though she studied them – alongside the workings of planes, cars and other facets of mechanical engineering at the University of Southampton – she wanted a career with a more “human” angle.
She’s now working in the pharmaceutical sector on GSK’s graduate scheme, applying her expertise to help perfect devices that deliver medicines to patients. “I like this side to product development because it’s about helping to make people better and getting their lives back on track. It’s not just about how well the grass gets cut,” she says.
