Introduction:
Hello, my name is Chuka Onya and I am currently a junior, majoring in mechanical engineering at the University of Houston. Growing up, as a kid, I enjoyed playing with my remote control or RC toys. I recall taking my toys apart and trying to put it back in place, which sometimes proved difficult and got me in a lot of trouble with my parents. During my high school years, I took many technical courses, which I very much enjoyed. My dad, who is currently a mechanical engineer, has always been my role model and it is because of his diligence as well, as his creative mind, that I am determined to follow his footsteps.

My ultimate goal is to graduate with a mechanical engineering degree and work in a leading company, where I can garner experience and grow, ultimately becoming a CEO of the company. I want to be a part of a company’s history, as one who will lead a company towards success.

Your Personal Career Objectives:
  • Postgraduate Plans – 3 yrs: Upon graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering, I plan to get a job a petrol-chemical company, preferable Shell. Because engineering is all about experience, I plan to garner experience, by working as a project engineer in their chemical plants and refineries. My responsibilities include designing, operating, maintaining and generating cost-effective, practical solutions for my processing plant.

  • Postgraduate Plans – 6 yrs: After three more years, I have mastered most, if not all of my objectives in the refinery. As a Leading field engineer at Shell, I get to work with cutting-edge technology and the solutions that I come up with really impact significant business decisions. I lead project that ended up being a major exploration acquisition for us in different countries. I also train teams in generating cost-effective, practical solutions for my processing plant.
