If you have an imaginative idea that helps engineers to communicate their expertise and passion to a wider audience – The Royal Academy of Engineering invites applications for its public engagement awards. These support projects that engage the public with engineers and engineering. Projects should aim to achieve the following:
•inspire public engagement with engineering;
•stimulate engineers to share their stories, passion and expertise in innovative ways with wider audiences;
•develop engineers’ communication and engagement skills;
•create debate between engineers and people of all ages to raise awareness of the diversity, nature and impact of engineering.
Awards are worth between £3,000 to £30,000 per project.
The latest round of the Ingenious scheme is now open to applications, and the closing date is 4pm on Monday 17 October 2016.
