Engineers Week 2018

Save the date!

Engineers Week is an annual week-long celebration of engineering in Ireland. During the week, a wide range of events and activities take place across the country involving students, teachers, parents, engineers, and the general public.

We are delighted to announce that next year’s Engineers Week will run from February 24th to March 2nd, 2018!  Engineers Ireland's STEPS team co-ordinates Engineers Week, but we need industry, teachers, students and parents to get involved in organising events in their own area.

What now?

Put the dates in your calendar (Feb 24th to Mar 2nd, 2018) and start planning your involvement in Engineers Week – we can't do it without you!

Get in touch with us with any questions or suggestions.

Check out our blog for inspiration from some of the schools and companies that participated this year here. 

Keep checking our website over the coming months as we’ll be adding to the calendar of events and suggesting fun activities to organise at home or in your classroom.
