In 2007 ICE NI began 2 new projects Civil Engineering in Primary schools and Bridges to Primary Schools which both aimed to develop the interest of young pupils in civil engineering. We have also taken part in career fairs, visited schools and further education colleges and delivered presentations.
However none of these events or initiatives could have taken place without the help of the graduate and student ambassadors who willingly give up their time during working hours, in the evenings and even at weekends to assist.
As we grow and expand these projects in the next year we need the support of our members. If anyone is interested in becoming involved with our work with schools or would like more information please contact michelle.murphy@ice.org.uk.
