During every event we ask the engineers and moderators to select the students who stood out for them: the students they thought asked the best questions, or engaged most in the live chats.

Well done to all of the student winners, and everyone who took part. There were so many interesting questions, and comments, but there could only be one winner in each zone. So, for fantastic engagement during the event, for posting brilliant questions and comments, the student winners below will each receive a certificate and a gift voucher. Continue reading →

Over the last week, students and engineers across the UK have been engaging online in I’m an Engineer, Get me out of here. Together they’ve talked about everything from how robotics will impact the health service, to advice for becoming an engineer and learning software development, to recommendations for engineering apprenticeships, to childhood interests, to  the discovery (for the engineers) of just who BTS are. This June, there’s a Health Zone, funded by Wellcome, and Milliampere Zone, a general zone featuring engineers from a range of areas and disciplines, funded by STFC. See all the engineers and schools taking part here. In total, in the first seven days there’s been: 529 school students logging in to the zones 252 ASK questions from students sent to the 12 engineers 338 votes cast by students for their favourites (almost) uncountable levels of conversation in the 17 live chats that have taken place. yesterday in #IAEUK @IAEGMOOH (2/2)-student2: surely I would be able to … Continue reading →

I’m an Engineer, Get me out of here! returns this June for two weeks from the 10th to the 21st. Engineers and school students across the country will be taking part in two different zones: Health, and Milliampere – a general engineering zone.
