We asked Douglas McClinton, an Aeronautical Engineering Lecturer at Ayrshire College, to tell us why he chose to become a Lecturer at Ayrshire College:
“I wanted to be part of something where I could see what I had created put into practice and Engineering design was the perfect choice. Throughout my career I learned how to think analytically, to think outside the box, to think like an engineer. Now, I am a lecturer teaching the next generation of aspiring engineers.”
