We look forward to welcoming you to what’s set to be a very informative and enlightening event.
About the Emerging Engineers Award
The Emerging Engineers Award promotes and rewards excellence in the originality and communication of civil engineering ideas and research.
It does this by creating an opportunity for ICE student and graduate members, as well as apprentices at either of these grades or holding professionally qualified membership as IEng MICE or EngTech MICE and continuing on their apprenticeship, to showcase their knowledge and talent to the wider civil engineering community.
Entrants present papers on engineering design, research or practice to an audience of their peers Entering this competition gives members the opportunity to enhance their written and verbal presentation skills, showcase their work and enhance continuing professional development, particularly in support of professional review preparation.
The ability to communicate technical concepts in a clear manner to a varied audience is a key skill for civil engineers, and this competition provides opportunity to enhance presentation skills. There is also opportunity to be selected for publication of the winning paper in one of the ICE technical journals.
