About Nuggets.
“Engineering Nuggets is a platform dedicated to bridging the gap between engineering expertise and real-life challenges. Founded by a civil engineer with a love for all things nerdy and geeky, this space serves as a hub for young professionals in the engineering world — from students to graduates and those advancing in their careers.
We’re not here to teach theory or formulas and softwares; there are plenty of sites for that. Instead, we focus on the practical, sometimes embarrassing questions that engineers often have but don’t know where to find answers. Whether it’s navigating career development, earning the right certifications, managing work-life balance, or exploring the geeky side of engineering, we’re here to provide insights you won’t find in textbooks; and answer you questions for dummies.
Have a question or need help with something? Don’t hesitate to message us! And keep an eye out for our upcoming forum, where you’ll be able to connect with fellow engineers and get the advice you need. Welcome to Engineering Nuggets — where passion meets profession, and the possibilities are truly endless.”

It’s this very essence that fueled the inception of the platform – to provide solace and guidance to fellow geeks and nerds navigating the complex journey of engineering and broke young adulthood among many other things while staying true to the force like a true jedi should..corny, i know but that’s the nerdy part.” – Ryan (2024)
