EAST ENGLAND
The award, supported by MBDA and the University of Hertfordshire invites pupils from Primary and Secondary schools in the East of England to be inspired by an engineer from a local industry. They can then apply an engineer’s eye to the world and identify problems in need of solving. When they have settled on their idea, they draw and annotate it, making clear what the problem is and their unique solution to it.
The partnership with the University of Hertfordshire extends to the selection of a winning entry for University of Hertfordshire engineering students to make and present at the following year’s awards.
All entries we receive will be awarded certificates, some will achieve Merits and Distinctions. A panel chooses two great ideas from each year group. These winners are presented with awards as part of a private show and awards day, followed by a public exhibition. For more information about East England Primary Engineer and Secondary Engineer Leaders Award 2019-2020 contact us at [email protected].
