REMINDER: Blog posts are due Sunday, September 11 at 5 PM.
After watching the Chunnel video clip and reading the associated article excerpt (in the Week 4 folder on Blackboard), consider the following:
1) What characteristics of British and French engineering culture are reflected in these stories about the Chunnel project? Are you surprised about these differences? Why or why not?
2) What are some possible pros/cons of each country's engineering culture? How were these reflected in the Chunnel project?
3) How and why do you think Great Britain and France developed unique engineering cultures? What factors or influences might help explain these differences?
4) Imagine you are about to start an internship at an engineering firm in Great Britain or France. To prepare for this experience, what could you do to learn more about each country's engineering culture?
