ABSTRACT
Engineering is a virtuous profession. In our
hands it has the power to create wealth or
to destroy it, and the gift to generate joy
or to deny it. This is a power we must use
wisely if society is to prosper. Engineers
literally change people’s lives. Engineering
enables us to eat, sleep, travel and even
simply sit – not that any engineer would
just spectate. Collectively, we must rewrite
the epitaph of the common engineer: “much
endeavour, little glory”. Engineers have a
great deal to offer society and should be
respected for it.
Please join us and our President, Mr Mark
Hunt for his Presidential address.
ABOUT THE PRESENTER
