Farheen is a second-year undergraduate reading Engineering Science at the University of Oxford. She joined Lloyd's Register Foundation for one week as a micro-intern. Using HEC's digital collections and other sources she analysed current safety challenges, to provide historical context as a means to discovering creative and meaningful solutions for modern-day issues. Farheen was fascinated by the Foundation's mission to engineer a safer, more sustainable world through an interdisciplinary approach that employs a variety of skills and occupations to achieve the best solutions for the modern world. This, alongside her passion for sustainability, cleaner energy and maritime engineering, meant this placement was the perfect fit!
