After every event we ask the winning engineers to write a short post to be sent to all the students who took part in the zone. It’s the perfect way for the engineers to reflect on the previous two weeks, thank all the students for voting for them, and talk about how they plan to use their £500 prize money.
If you’re an engineer keen to experience the ‘best crash course in scicomm’, apply now for the next event, taking place 5th–16th November, at imanengineer.org.uk/engineer-apply

I am very thankful to the students for engaging in conversations about engineering at many different levels and I am thankful to the organisers for making this possible. I can only hope that my messages got through to the students and that our chats will be fruitful for their futures. They will definitely be on my mind for a while. Thank you.

I got an awful lot out of chatting to you all. I had a lot of fun, had a laugh and even learned some new stuff while answering the questions. But most of all I feel reinvigorated by what I do and for that, I cannot thank you enough. I thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience and I hope I did my bit to inspire some of you; if I managed to, this is the biggest reward of all.
If you’re up for the challenge, want to answer some downright weird questions, even learn things from students…
