The motivation behind Future Engineers is to provide a positive image of engineering to students, engaging them in hands-on activities which will inspire them into choosing a career in one of the many engineering disciplines on offer.

The brainchild of Stephen Payne OBE, chief designer of the Queen Mary 2 and Brian Ansell, a physics teacher from West Sussex, they conceived the idea of using the QM2 as a vehicle to excite students about engineering. Aimed at students in years 9, 10 and 11, the inaugural event took place on board the QM2. Click here to read more.

"Engineering offers a kaleidoscope of rewarding career opportunities across many disciplines. It's worth remembering that Engineers change the world!"
Stephen Payne, OBE
