A Tale of Civil Engineering and Global Pursuits with Pei Huang

A Tale of Civil Engineering and Global Pursuits with Pei Huang

Are you a foreign woman civil engineer in the US looking to get your PE? 🤔 Then our latest episode with Pei Huang is for you! She came to the US from China for her Master’s, got her PhD too, and passed her PE exam on the first try — while pregnant and working full-time! 😲 In this episode, she reveals her international journey from Environmental to Water Resources to Transportation…all the way to doing real estate on the side (No, not a typo. 😂)


Tune in to Learn:

  • Why she switched from Water Resources to Transportation Engineering

  • Why did she go for her PhD (and should you)?

  • How a PhD eliminates one step on your journey to becoming PE easier

  • Her exam prep strategy to pass the PE on the first try, pregnant and working full-time

  • Advice for women engineers to thrive in the field

  • Her two-word piece of advice for young engineers, both men and women

  • The importance of mentors and the many different ways to find one
