Austin Morgan, a 2024 Embry-Riddle graduate and mechanical engineer at Unico Mechanical Corporation, discusses his career in hydropower engineering. He works on refurbishing and repairing equipment, including hydraulic servos for the Hoover Dam. Austin emphasizes the value of clear, concise, audience-aware communication in his work; he needs to track every step of each repair and report to colleagues depending on their information needs. He advises current students to actively engage in campus life and try as many activities as they can before they graduate and trade the relative freedom of college for a 40-hour work week.
