      Hi Doctor Chicken009!

      Actually, I dont have a PhD. It’s not necessary to have one to be an engineer (although it definitely helps!). I have an MEng and an MSE (like an MSc). It feels pretty good, but to be honest I don’t think about it too much. It’s a bit of paper with fancy writing on that helps you get jobs. The lessons I learnt while getting it – in engineering and life – were far more important!
