Skills for the road engineer of the future | National Roads and Traffic Expo
Dr Bronwyn Evans, Engineers Australia CEO |
“All too often, engineers are presented with a request to build this bridge here, or that road there, without the opportunity to contribute their unique expertise to the underlying strategic decisions and related assumptions.”
Engineer registration: professionalising fire safety | Warren Centre Address
Dr Bronwyn Evans, Engineers Australia CEO |
"Lives depend on engineering. Structural integrity is the most obvious example, but fire, flood, electric shock and landslip prevention, clean drinking water, product design… all rely on engineering. Importantly, we think laws requiring registration should apply to engineers from all sectors, not just building and construction – and that it should also apply to engineers in all forms of building and construction, not just apartments."
“Each for equal” | Engineers Australia International Women’s Day Event Series
Dr Bronwyn Evans, Engineers Australia CEO |
"[Today] is about celebrating the perspectives, leadership and skills we bring to the table. It’s about the women who’ve gone before us, about our male and female champions in leadership, about the barriers we work to overcome and what we can do to lend a helping hand to others. When it comes to women in engineering, the conversation has moved over the years."
Climate change: the technical sector’s role and responsibility | Engineers Without Borders Panel
Dr Bronwyn Evans, Engineers Australia CEO |
"Engineers have a vital role to play in increasing renewable energy and developing more sustainable transport, reducing the energy needed to create building products and electronics, increasing the durability of our manufactured goods and adapting to our changing climate."
Why you should choose an engineering career | Address to Honeywell Engineering Summer School
Dr Bronwyn Evans, Engineers Australia CEO |
“Engineering touches almost every aspect of modern life, and is going to be critical in creating better energy solutions, cities that function more effectively and communities that are sustainable, secure, healthy, just and prosperous… The world is your oyster – and we hope engineering will be the tool you use to crack the future wide open.”
Tomorrow’s metrology, the science of measurement for the digital economy | APMP 2019 Symposium
Dr Bronwyn Evans, Engineers Australia CEO |
“Our economy has changed from one that used to be dominated by physical objects – crops, minerals, manufactured goods – to one dominated by services. And yet, the precision with which we can measure physical objects far exceeds our ability to measure services. Could this change?”
The future role of engineers | Engineers Australia Executive Breakfast
Dr Bronwyn Evans, Engineers Australia CEO |
"When Engineers Australia asks employers what they value most in staff – and seek in new hires – the answer isn’t technical skill. The most common responses include: emotional intelligence; creativity and innovation; communication and interpersonal skills; teamwork, work ethic and initiative; and willingness to take responsibility."
Celebrating 100 years of Engineers Australia | Engineers Australia NSW event
Dr Bronwyn Evans, Engineers Australia CEO |
"One hundred years ago Engineers Australia came into being. It was a joining together of 12 small colonial institutes, inspired by Australia’s federation as a nation. The predecessor groups were scattered across the continent, had limited scope, and lacked a strong voice."
