Subject Matter Expert (SME) Lecture Series

On the 4th of August, our honourable speaker Prof. Dr. Zamri bin Yusoff (Dean of the College of Engineering of UNITEN) shared with us some pointers to becoming a successful in our future engineering career, the current expectations in the engineering industry and our prospective employers, the advantages of utilising computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to solve engineering related problems and also his technical experience in engineering consultancy.

Prof. Dr. Zamri also noted that as future engineers, we should be well equipped with not only our technical knowledge but also a strong foundation of soft skills which includes good communication skills, leadership and also a role player in a team.

The talk concluded with a Q&A session with Prof. Dr. Zamri and some light refreshments.

The Future of Aerospace In the North West

Thousands of Institution members from around the globe were involved with promoting the aerospace industry at this year’s Farnborough International Airshow. The event, which is the biggest of its kind in the world, witnessed the first UK flight of Boeing’s new 787 Dreamliner and the F-35, and saw orders totalling some US$47billion. The North West region of the UK has one of the highest concentrations of engineers working in the aerospace industry. Here, we look at the work of the Annual Northern Aerospace Forum.

The aerospace sector of the North West of England has long been recognised as one of Europe’s leading industrial clusters and a model for development both within aerospace and in other areas of industry. The region’s aerospace sector drives the UK’s aerospace economy, employing more skilled people and generating more overseas income than any other region

Bloodhound: The ultimate engineering adventure

             Promoting education and inspiring the next generation of engineers are two of the strongest desires of our members, and to fulfil this the Institution is pleased to announce that it has become a sponsor of Bloodhound: the supersonic car project that is widely regarded to be the ultimate education opportunity in engineering for this generation thanks to a comprehensive and far-reaching educational outreach programme that spans the globe.

           The sponsorship deal was announced at this year’s Farnborough International Airshow, when the life-size model of Bloodhound was unveiled for the first time. Here, we find out more about how the project will support and promote engineering education from Bloodhound team members Chief Engineer Mark Chapman, Affiliate member Jenna Gaff; ex-Formula Student competitor and Affiliate member Sarah Covell; and Institution Deputy President Isobel Pollock and Trustee Board Member, Matt Garside.

             Since the Bloodhound project was launched in October 2008, many IMechE members have been lobbying the Institution to lend support to this extraordinary engineering initiative. The Institution was able to respond positively to members’ wishes and sign up as a stripe sponsor of Bloodhound at the Farnborough International Airshow.

            The idea for Bloodhound came from the then Science Minister, Lord Drayson, who hoped that a once-in-a generation engineering initiative such as this would inspire school children to embark on careers in science and engineering, and showcase the R&D capabilities of international engineering companies from a range of sectors.
