News Update

It's a new school year and everyone has new challenges to face. Why not challenge yourself from the brief we give you to plan, design and make a working model. A good opportunity to work as a team of 4 and learn from your mistakes, modify your ideas and have the satisfaction the "you made it".

Engineering covers almost all aspects of our life and without engineers life would not progressing make things easier and more enjoyable. It is a rewarding career and there is a high demand from industry for new talent.

We are currently designing a new task for this year, relevant to our society, and it will be fun to participate.

If your school has not indicated their interest now is the time to apply.
