  • Big Ideas: the Future of Engineering in Schools
    BIG IDEAS: THE FUTURE OF ENGINEERING IN SCHOOLS. With support from Improving the world through engineering WE NEED TO PROMOTE ENGINEERING AS A PEOPLE-FOCUSED, PROBLEM- SOLVING, SOCIALLY BENEFICIAL DISCIPLINE. PETER FINEGOLD, INSTITUTION OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERS Leading the Change The UK has had a shortage of engineers for a very long time, and the issue is growing. Launched in 2015, Leading the Change is campaigning to broaden our approach on how we promote and teach engineering to all young people, not just those already passionate about science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) subjects. It is our belief that by working together to get children immersed in STEM subjects from an early age, we can lay the foundations for a lifelong passion for engineering, particularly with those who otherwise would not have considered pursuing this career path. The campaign also details how the Institution is already working to enthuse young people in a number of different ways, from national and regional STEM events, scholarships and awards, industrial placements for teachers, to one-on-one support. To find out more about our campaign, visit imeche.org/leading-the-change This report has been produced in the context of the Institution’s strategic themes of Energy, Environment, Education, Manufacturing, Healthcare and Transport, and its vision of ‘Improving the world through engineering’.
