Interviewer: You're doing an HND (Higher National Degree) in Civil Engineering. How long does that last?
Alec: It's a two-year course.
Int.: And what stage are you at now?
Alec: I'm in the second semester of the first year.
Int.: How many students are in the group?
Alec: There are eight, all men.
Int.: Why did you decide to do this course?
Alec: I left school at seventeen and started off as an Architectural Technician and...
Int.: What did that involve, being an Architectural Technician?
Alec: Doing all the technical drawings for the architects, things like that. We used a program called Autocad.
Int.: And what took you into that line of business?
Alec: Well, I was interested in architecture. My best subject at school, the one I enjoyed most, was Graphic communication. I decided to try to get a career using that. So, I went into an architect's office and was there for four years before I decided to start my HND. (Technology, Unit 2)
Questions: 1. Which stage of the course is Alec at? 2. How many women are taking the course? 3. What age was he when he left the school? 4. Which subject did he enjoy most at school? 5. What job did he do when he left school?
IV. Read/listen to part 2 of the interview:
Interviewer: Tell me about your timetable.
Alec: I have classes three days a week - Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and self-study on the other days.
Int: Which subject appeals to you most?
Alec: Erm, the Theory of Structures. I really enjoy it. That's twice on a Monday - Monday morning first thing and on Monday afternoon.
Int.: What do you like about it?
Alec: I like the maths and physics side of it, how the structure actually works.
Int.: Is any of the work in the lab?
Alec: We've got Materials this semester. We're in the lab every week - testing concrete and that sort of thing. On Fridays, there's Project work from 11.15 for most of the day. I've been at a structural engineering company learning how a civil engineering project is run.
Int.: What's the company working on?
Alec: They're turning an old office building into a nightclub, restaurant, and five-star hotel. It's interesting to get on site and to speak to the engineers.
Int.: What's Complex communications on Wednesday?
Alec: Before and after lunch? It's about language. You have to pick something to do with engineering and write a report about it. Then present it to the other students.
Int.: What have you chosen?
Alec: I'm doing a project on a new bridge over the Forth, right here in Scotland. There's a lot of public opposition.
Int.: Do we need a new bridge?
Alec: Yes, the research I've done shows the present bridge is carrying ten times the amount of traffic it was designed for.
Int.: What's Fluid mechanics on Friday morning?
Alec: Er, it is how fluids behave, water pressure on pipes, and that sort of thing. It's one of the hardest subjects.
Int.: Do you find you have a lot of work to do outside the course?
Alec: Yes, it's not particularly hard but it's constant.
Int.: And how is it assessed?
Alec: It's modular, continuous assessment. You have to pass all the modules. (Technology, Unit 2)
