Abstract

Zoe’s Uncle and Aunt are engineers, and it was their fixing things around the house that inspired her life-long interest in electronics. With the help of one of the IET’s Diamond Jubilee Scholarships, she is about to finish her studies, has completed two internships with BT and has had a whole host of opportunities opened up to her.

The IET Annual Dinner helps to fund the Engineering Horizons Bursaries and Diamond Jubilee Scholarships programme. Find out how booking a table can help more young engineers like Zoe achieve their dreams. www.theiet.org/annualdinner
