Engineering Your Future Transition Year Programme

Engineering Your Future is a week-long, hands-on programme for Transition Year students who have an interest in science and maths. It is designed to introduce them to the exciting and diverse world of engineering.

Hosted by a number of colleges around the country, the Engineering Your Future programme provides a week of exposure to the various engineering disciplines. Attending students gain a meaningful, practical insight into engineering at third level and as a career - interacting with lecturers and graduates, taking part in workshops and meeting engineers during industry visits.

• Gain a better understanding of the skills required of engineers and the career opportunities available to qualified engineers. 
• Learn about the disciplines and technologies making up the exciting world of engineering. 
• Meet engineers at various stages in their careers and hear about their experiences.
