About The Surfcoast Engineer
Director, Jon McGowan is a life long engineer. Pictured repairing a Mini in 1989 and 30 years later at a more advanced facility!
“As an undergraduate I gained a bachelors degree in Aeronautical Engineering from Londons’ City University focusing on both vehicle aerodynamics and structural wind effects on buildings. I began my career with Roush and then Land Rover, Ford UK after which I was recruited to work for Ford Australia as a Development Engineer.”
Academic qualifications followed with a Masters in Infrastructure Engineering and Management from Monash University and subsequent trade certificates were earned as an Automotive Mechanic and a few years later a qualified Boilermaker.
After becoming a licenced Registered Professional Engineer in both Victoria and Queensland I was invited to be an assessor for those applying to become a Professional Engineer.
