EngRec 2021
Available On-Demand until 30th November
Join IMechE and Professional Engineering at THE virtual fair for early engineering careers and find your perfect job!
Now in its second year, EngRec is a free to attend one-day virtual exhibition and conference for early careers engineers. In 2020, the event attracted more than 3,000 registrations with attendees being able to speak directly to companies looking to recruit, apply for jobs on the day and put their CVs in front of engineering recruitment leaders. The event also brought with it the opportunity to find out more about the exciting engineering career opportunities/industries via a number of on-the-day seminars and talks.
Join us for FREE on 29th October to:
Research shows that, even without a global pandemic, location, time and travel costs are significant barriers stopping early careers engineers attending careers fairs. Last year, we decided to do something about it. And so EngRec was born - In 2020, the event attracted more than 3,000 registrations and more than 1,700 individuals on the day . Exhibitors were able to engage young engineers, students and graduates and had the opportunity to talk to and recruit the best that engineering has to offer.
The 2021 exhibitors include:
Exhibitor feedback - “ The traffic has been pretty much non-stop! Really good day and we have had lots of interested individuals ” RAF, Exhibitor 2020

Description
To rapidly transition economies to net zero greenhouse gas emissions, the world of tomorrow needs to be engineered. Innovations in energy generation and applications for heat, power and transportation are required to make modern clean energy services and products more readily available. As we innovate and economies diversify, society and industries must be responsible to ensure that nobody is left behind.
This talk showcases some of the research being undertaken at the Research Institutes for Clean Growth and Future Mobility (CGFM) and Mathematical, Physical and Computational Sciences (MPCS) at Coventry University and the role engineers are playing in securing a sustainable future for all.
This talk will also signpost educational opportunities to improve employability in this evolving jobs market such as part-time masters and doctoral programmes, degree apprenticeships and more.
Dr. Jonathan Nixon and his academic team will be available after the talk to answer your further questions on the Coventry University exhibition stand.
