Engineering is everywhere – from agriculture to aerospace, from chemistry to construction, the profession makes up nearly a fifth of the UK workforce. Skilled engineers are also a cornerstone of our economy, fundamental to solving problems of today and tomorrow, and to achieving our net zero commitments. However, we are facing a shortage, driven by a combination of factors including an aging workforce and a general misunderstanding of the variety of compelling career options and opportunities within the sector.
For National Engineering 2024, ITN Business launched Engineering: Today, Tomorrow & Beyond, a digital news-style programme presented by Dr Shini Somara.
