For the past two years, create magazine has been shining the spotlight on Australia’s most innovative engineers in a special listing every July. The breadth of projects we have featured has been remarkable: from bionic gloves to deep-water 3D imaging systems, and low-drag helmets to interplanetary rockets.
This year we are doing do it again. We want to recognise outstanding engineers who have made noteworthy contributions.
Engineers can nominate themselves or be nominated by others and they do not need to be members of Engineers Australia. Nominations are open to all engineers working in Australia and Australian engineers working overseas.
Any technology, project or product mentioned must have been developed, commenced or completed during the period 2016-2018. Engineers who were included in earlier lists may enter again, as long as it is not the same project for which they were selected.
There will be a number of different categories under which engineers may enter including Academia & Research; Building & Construction; Community; Consulting; Electronics, Software & Communications; General Industry, Manufacturing & Automation; Mining, Oil & Gas; Utilities. There is also a Young Engineer category, for which entrants must be 35 or under on 30 June 2018.
Nominations are now open and will close on 23 February 2018 so it is important to start working on your entry now.
