Engineers Australia knows that many of the most successful engineers weren’t merely forged at university – they began their engineering journey while young, eager and full of possibility.They also provide insights and assistance to students interested in pursuing an engineering career.
Perhaps your interest and aptitude in science and maths has guided you to engineering. Maybe you love designing and building, or have ideas that will make the world a better place. You might even be driven to engineering by a cause you believe in, such as feeding the hungry or cleaning the world’s oceans.
No matter how you arrived at engineering, know this: as an engineer you will face rewarding challenges, work with brilliant minds, put your skills and talents to great use and shape a future where our tools, vehicles, structures and cities are more functional, efficient and accessible.
Engineers are one of Australia’s most important resources, and you are one of engineering’s valued hopefuls. Connect with Engineers Australia to discover engineering, chart your course and embrace an amazing future.
