Today, we’re celebrating #NationalEngineeringDay with our friends @ThisisEng. The theme is #EngineeringRoleModels and we’re inspired by people like HJ who has recently transitioned from a position in Science to Software Engineering. See @RAEngNews for more inspiration today 🫶

Happy National Engineering Day! #EngineeringRoleModels

This National Engineering Day we’re talking about #engineeringrolemodels, thanks to Kelly Anna for her wonderful artwork to celebrate, who is your engineering role model? @ThisIsEng @RAEngNews @RAEngGlobal @KellyAnnaLondon

“I quickly realised that technology could solve real-world problems... At university, I learned about machine learning. It wasn’t in the context of agriculture, but I saw how it could translate into practical solutions for farmers.” For Black History Month, we wanted to highlight Esther Kimani, the 2024 winner of the #AfricaPrize for Engineering Innovation in its 10th anniversary year. She spoke to us about how she turned her bold idea into a transformative business. Read her story: africaprize.raeng.org.uk/news-and-updat… #BHM2024 #EngDiversity
