My Smarter Essex
My Smarter Essex is an initiative led by CSES in partnership with ARU and Essex County Council.
The mission is to engage citizens of all ages in the design of a smarter future Essex, and to promote careers and opportunities in STE(A)M, through a series of interactive conferences for students, families, industry partners and the public sector.

We look forward to seeing you there!
Tuesday 5th November 2013, 15:30 - 19:00, Anglia Ruskin University (Lord Ashcroft Building)
CSES is pleased to announce that it will be holding its 7th biannual Engineering Our Future event, this time based on the theme of Aerospace Engineering. The event will follow the normal agenda of exhibitions throughout the evening supported by local technology companies, Anglia Ruskin University, and organisations such as STEMNET and Essex County Council. During the evening there will be approximately 5 short and snappy lectures given by local engineers, scientists and others practising in the field of aerospace.
I have been to two Engineering Our Future lectures hosted by CSES at Anglia Ruskin University in Chelmsford. I feel that these have both been very worthwhile in informing the career path that I would like to choose due to the wide variety of topics covered by the courses. The presence of company exhibits allowed me to see what the companies actually do in a far more tangible way than through the abstract descriptions on their websites.
The lectures were both informative and interesting, highlighting the practical uses of the engineering that they use. The lecturers have all been very knowledgeable and have related to the audience well. To summarise, I would highly recommend these lectures for anyone who is looking to find out more about a career in Engineering.
These lectures provide a great insight to what technologies are up and coming as they are presented by the engineers who are working on such technologies. Many of these are at the cutting edge and provide an insight into what we will be engineering ten years into the future. As well as providing lectures the Engineering our Future events also welcome stands from local engineering companies to exhibit their current projects and also to provide information into how they got involved with engineering and how you could also become involved.
