Derek Mulder receives Young Mechanical Engineer of the Year
On 27 September 2009, Derek Mulder received the Young Mechanical Engineer of the Year award in Sydney. The award was sponsored by Applidyne.
Derek's achievements as a young mechanical engineer and his dedication to the activities of Engineers Australia and his active role in the enhancement of the public image of the profession have earned him national recognition.
Derek, a senior engineer with Lesley Consulting as a volunteer, is also the Queensland Mechanical Branch Committee Chair. Derek believes the best way to achieving sustainability and efficiency is to engage with the community. Field trips and seminars help keep people abreast of current projects and technologies.
This is timely recognition in anticipation of next year's Year of Engineering Leadership.
