About this Event
Join us on the 13th of November 2024 to celebrate engineers on National Engineering Day at Heriot-Watt University Dubai.
On National Engineering Day, we celebrate how engineers keep improving our everyday lives and shape the world around us. It’s a day to make engineers more visible as we invite the public to learn more about engineering and inspire the next generation to make it their career.
Young people need role models who inspire and excite them about the possibilities of engineering in order for them to aspire to join the engineering profession. In today’s engineering workforce, only 15.7% are women and 11.4% are from minority ethnic groups. Let us engineer a better future to change that statistic. To meet that ambition, the engineering profession needs to recruit from all sections of society.
