The compère for the ceremony was Radio 4 Today programme presenter Sarah Montague, who introduced Academy President Lord Browne of Madingley FREng FRS and guest of honour the Rt Hon Vince Cable MP, Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills. The UK’s most valuable engineering innovation prize, the £50,000 MacRobert Award, was presented to a Cambridge-based team from Microsoft Research for their work in helping to create Microsoft Kinect for Xbox 360, the world’s first truly hands-free gaming system, which holds the Guinness World Record as the fastest-selling consumer electronics device in history. The five winning engineers, Professor Andrew Blake FREng FRS, Mat Cook, Dr Andrew Fitzgibbon, Toby Sharp and Dr Jamie Shotton, won the 42nd annual MacRobert Award for cracking the problem of motion-capture in real time, giving Kinect its unique functionality and opening up a new world of possibility in the IT world. It is anticipated that such hands-free computer control devices could revolutionise the way surgery is performed around the world. The second annual Rooke Medal for the Public Promotion of Engineering, named after former Academy President Sir Denis Rooke OM CBE FRS FREng, went to Professor Chris Bishop FREng FRSE, also of Microsoft Research, for his ongoing work in engaging members of the public in the work of engineers and their contribution to society. Four Silver Medals for commercial success in engineering were awarded to Dr Shaun Fitzgerald (Breathing Buildings Ltd and University of Cambridge) for his work on natural ventilation for buildings; Dr Karin Hing (ApaTech and Queen Mary, University of London) for research in the bioactivity of bone graft substitutes; Professor Doug King (King Shaw Associates and University of Bath) for contributing to some of the most ground breaking sustainable buildings of the past two decades; and Professor Eric Yeatman (Microsaic Systems Ltd and Imperial College London) for offering the world the first micro-electrical mass spectrometers and a desktop instrument for liquid analysis. Receiving the President’s Medal for promoting excellence in engineering was Professor Anthony Kelly CBE DL FREng FRS. Known globally as the ‘father of composite materials’ he has held many posts in his 60-year career, including Vice Chancellor of the University of Surrey and President of the Institute of Materials. His book Strong Solids, published in 1965, is still seen as the seminal work in the field of composite materials. The ERA Foundation Entrepreneurship Award for early-stage researchers who exhibit a combination of business awareness, entrepreneurial potential and complementary personal qualities in the field of electro-technology, was presented to Dr Sithamparanathan Sabesan and Dr Michael Crisp, both from University of Cambridge’s engineering department, for their research into a low-cost location sensing system, which could have major benefits for a wide range of businesses, including retailers and airlines. The Academy’s awards evening was made possible by the generous support of title sponsor BAE Systems and sponsors Arup, Bosch, BP, E.ON, Petrofac, Shell and Thales.

The project attracted deep engagement from several large engineering employers and is now providing a sound foundation for the National HE STEM programme. Our founders’ vision was for the Academy to promote engineering for the national benefit, for progress in wider society and for the future of humankind. We know what success will look like. We want to see a much better understanding among the public and opinion formers of what engineers do and can achieve.

  • Engineering Grand Challenges
    Engineering Grand Challenges Report on outcomes of a retreat – 07 and 08 May 2014 Ettington Chase, Stratford-upon-Avon Foreword Professor Sir Peter Gregson (Chief Executive and Vice- Chancellor, Cranfield University) When EPSRC asked me to chair the Engineering Grand Challenges Retreat, I accepted without hesitation. It was my great pleasure to work with a group of 20 enthusiastic and talented UK Engineers from academia and industry, alongside EPSRC colleagues, at a retreat on 7-8 May 2014 at Ettington Chase, near Stratford-upon-Avon. I was exposed to a great blend of creativity, commitment and intellectual horsepower during the meeting, and this report is a stepping stone towards identifying Engineering Grand Challenges for the next decade. Our work built on that initiated by the Royal Academy of Engineering (RAEng), in partnership with the IET and EPSRC, through the Global Grand Challenges Summit 2013. Many of the themes discussed at the Summit (e.g. sustainability, health, resilience, technology, etc.) were considered further during our retreat. EPSRC has also sought views from their UK Strategic University and Business Partners, and their responses were used as an input into the retreat. I was particularly delighted to welcome Lord Alec Broers, who was involved in steering the US National Academy of Engineering (NAE) Grand Challenges initiative, and who emphasised the need for novel and exciting engineering solutions to the very big challenges of our time. We also heard from Prof Paul Raithby (University of Bath), who leads the EPSRC-funded Directed-Assembly Chemistry Grand Challenge Network, and who provided valuable insights about the impact of the chemistry grand challenges on UK research.

  • The Fifth Report of Senior Pay and Perks at UK Universities
    Transparency at the top? The fifth report of senior pay and perks in UK universities History This is the fifth report on pay and perks at the top of British higher education institutions (HEIs) to be published by the University and College Union (UCU). It forms part of the union’s ongoing campaign for greater transparency in higher education, including the rationale behind senior pay rises. UCU submitted a Freedom of Information (FoI) request to 158 HEIs in November 2018. This followed similar requests submitted in 2017, 2016, 2015 and 2014. All requests were designed to shine a light on the arbitrary nature of senior pay and perks in universities, and support the union’s call for reform. The basis for this report The FoI request that forms the basis of this report was sent to 158 HEIs. It requested details of vice-chancellors’ (or head of institution if known by a different title) salaries and those of other senior post-holders earning over £100,000 at the institution during the academic year of 2017/18 (1 August 2017 to 31 July 2018). It also asked for details spending on flights and hotels, and if the vice- chancellor was provided with accommodation by the university. Finally, we requested to know whether or not the vice-chancellor was a member of the remuneration committee, if they could attend even if not a member and requested a copy of the most recently ratified minutes of the institution’s remuneration committee. Variety of responses The questions on salary, expenditure on flights, hotels and accommodation for vice-chancellors elicited a huge variation in responses with many institutions deploying exemptions under the Freedom of Information Act to avoid providing data.
