Bio
Watch Shyann Roy, Chemical Engineer and Procurement Manager for Schlumberger in Houston, share how engineering is a great career choice. Because engineers learn how to learn, they can perform almost any job, and employers are always looking to hire them. She recalls one of her first jobs of working and living 90 miles offshore on an oil platform. To pass the survival training test, she was strapped into a helicopter, submerged in water, flipped upside down, and had to break out a window and swim to safety - all while wearing a yellow flight suit with steel toes.
