Q&A with Peter

At 大象传媒, education is not confined to the four walls of the classroom. You鈥檙e not going to spend four years with your nose buried in a book, learning theories you may never get a chance to apply 鈥 you鈥檙e going to get out there and apply them, be it through internships, group projects, leadership opportunities, competitions and more.

How Did You Get Started?

I got my first technical training and experience in the Navy. From there, I got a job as an Assistant Engineer at a Navy defense contracting firm outside Washington DC where I worked on computer, communication and radar systems.
