Egheosa Ogbomo

Egheosa joined the Engineering team at HLK in 2019 after completing his Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Warwick, in which he achieved a First Class. While studying for his degree, he undertook several internships in a broad range of scientific fields. He was part of Warwick’s iGEM team for two years; a competition focussing on furthering the field of synthetic biology, travelling to Boston twice to present results from research into using the dCas9 activation system. He undertook a year in industry at the Advanced Propulsion Centre where he was exposed to cutting edge research in low-carbon technology for the automotive industry and he also spent a summer at Jaguar Land Rover working as part of the electric vehicle research team.

Egheosa takes pleasure in sharing his passion for STEM. He is a registered STEM ambassador and has visited over 15 schools to speak about pursuing a STEM degree and career. He also supported a school as it built an electric go-kart to compete in a Greenpower Education Trust competition.
