The Royal Academy of Engineering has launched “This is Engineering”.
The new campaign has been designed by The Royal Academy of Engineering to change perceptions of Engineering.
The campaigns ambitious aim is to “rebrand engineering” by challenging what we consider engineering to mean in the 21st century and promote the dynamic, exciting and varied careers it offers.
Led by the Academy the campaign is a collaboration between EngineeringUK and other industry partners and forms part of the Academies contribution to the government’s 2018 Year of Engineering.
