Offshore wind could be the answer to managing higher energy demand. But this comes with its challenges, and we should consider the following factors: · Innovation in design and manufacturing · Ensuring we have the capabilities and personnel to expand our offshore wind supply · The lifespan and funding of projects Click the link in the comments to learn more👇

After awarding 6,000 Girlguides with a civil engineering badge, we're expanding the programme! A successful pilot in Northern Ireland, Wales, London and the south-east of England means you'll now get a chance to earn the badge in three new regions: 👉 Scotland 👉 North-east England 👉 North-west England The activity pack has also been updated, featuring a new task where they'll balance cost, environmental impact, and passenger satisfaction to create innovative railway solutions. Ada Nwadigo, 2024’s ICE STEM Ambassador of the year, introduces the project, citing that transport is the” lifeline of our society”. Click the link in comments to learn more.

Which ICE region outside the UK has over 8,000 members?   If you answered Hong Kong, you’ll have guessed where our President Professor Jim Hall visited last week.   During his trip, he: 👉 Connected with the next generation of civil engineers at the certificate presentation ceremony. 👉 Learned about protecting the local community from floods at the Yuen Long Barrage Scheme. 👉 Discussed climate change with the Environment and Ecology Bureau. Swipe through the photos to see what else he got up to📸

Welcome to our brand-new series uncovering the structural and civil engineering wonders of the world. This week, we’re visiting the south of France to look at the tallest bridge on the planet – the Millau Viaduct. Weighing 290,000 tonnes, it's ranked as one of the greatest infrastructure achievements of modern times. Let us know in the comments what you'd like to see in part two - we'll be sure to tag you in the next video!

They meet again!    After Eric Ma made the trip to London for Jim Hall's Presidential Address, the pair reunited in Hong Kong.   Jim will also be visiting our first international corporate partner, Gammon Construction Limited and going to the Boardwalk Underneath Island Eastern Corridor.   Stay tuned for our next update📸 The Hong Kong Institution of Engineers

Working together to achieve the same goal makes perfect sense - so why are we still working in silos?   In collaboration with The Chartered Institute of Water and Environmental Management, our early career networks touched on the importance of breaking barriers to drive meaningful change.   Click the links in the comments to learn how you can join the discussion👇 CIWEM (The Chartered Institution of Water and Environmental Management) Marcus Rodin Meredith Hanson Aimee Jones Kieran Murnane Alice S.

The government wants to build a better UK, but does it have the foundations? The treasury announced plans for a new National Infrastructure and Service Transformation Authority (NISTA). They’ll focus on making strategic cases that focus on outcomes over outputs. Will they finally solve how we deliver infrastructure?
