🚀 From Corporate Management to Engineering Expertise

What happens when a working professional steps beyond her comfort zone and into the world of engineering?

For Seng Choi Yee, her journey from a corporate management graduate to Programme Director began with hands-on industry experience and a desire to understand engineering more deeply.

Through WOU’s Bachelor of Technology (Honours) in Mechatronics, she gained the structure, theoretical knowledge and confidence to connect her workplace experience with engineering concepts — while continuing to work and manage her personal commitments.

Her journey also led to an award-winning Cubli-inspired Self-Balancing Cube, which earned the Most Market-Ready Innovation Award at WOU InnovateX 2026. 🏆

“I was doing it for the knowledge, not only the certification.”

📖 Read her inspiring journey and discover how flexible learning helped her turn experience into expertise.
