Year of Engineering

Would you like to showcase our amazing industry to young people at the Science Museum?  As part of the 2018 Year of Engineering campaign to increase interest in engineering as a career the Science Museum in London is looking for engineers from a variety of industries, organisations and disciplines to join them as volunteers in their live events programme. This is where you come in!

Volunteers can design and run their own activities; take up residence in one of the Science Museum’s galleries to interpret objects around your field of engineering; or simply be available to chat with members of the public about who you are, what you do and how you got into engineering. You will receive training and travel expenses will be paid.  Let’s put Refrigeration and Air Conditioning on the map! To find out more about this great opportunity visit https://bit.ly/2JynZGa
