IET calls for bright engineers
21 June 2013
The Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) has launched a worldwide search for the best engineering via its awards programme – the IET Innovation Awards.
The Innovation Awards recognise excellence in 15 categories, covering science, engineering and technology. Categories include engine control; infotainment; the connected car; vehicle fuelling; vehicle design and fuel and energy efficiency technologies.
The awards are free to enter and are open to members and non-members of the IET.
Nigel Fine, IET chief executive, said, “These awards recognise the most outstanding innovations across science, engineering and technology celebrating the contribution made by engineers and technicians to enhance people’s lives everywhere.
“The IET is passionate about promoting engineering excellence and the Innovation Awards are a great opportunity to showcase some of the very best work taking place around the world.”
Each category of the Innovation Awards is independently judged by a panel of experts in that field.
The shortlist for the awards is announced in October. Winners will be revealed at a celebrity-hosted ceremony and gala dinner in London at The Brewery on 20 November.
To submit an entry, visit www.theiet.org/innovation. The deadline for entries is 26 July.
