Welcome to another episode of the SCE podcast. In this new episode our guests Nigel Fine - Chief Executive and Secretary of the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET)- and Alice Bunn - Chief Executive of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE)- discuss the role of the Professional Engineering Institutions in driving change and supporting Diversity and Inclusion in the Engineering industry.

After highlighting the amazing progress made in the industry in the past years, both Alice and Nigel touch on an incredible variety of topics that are all linked to the issue of diversity in engineering and its key role in addressing the challenges of the future. The opportunity of flexible working and diversity campaigns, engineering education and STEM outreach, fostering collaboration and innovation: these are the tools that the professional bodies are using in the continuous effort to reshape the engineering industry and keep it modern and relevant to meet the needs of the next generation for a more diverse, ethic and sustainable future.

We hope you enjoy the conversation as much as we did. As always, we would love to hear your thoughts so don’t hesitate to get in touch!
