Introduction:
Current research shows that as many as 7 out of 10 newly graduated SET students are lost, every year, to alternative careers. The most common reason for this is negative perception and lack of awareness of what a career in science, engineering and technology can really offer.
As a committed stakeholder in the
In May 2006, The Engineer launched Technology Horizons, a joint initiative created to address the issue and bring more young talent into the sector to address the growing skills gap. Technology Horizons takes the form of a magazine and website targeting the vitally important 18 – 25 age group of SET students and early stage professionals with lively and compelling content that presents the real value of a career in science, engineering and technology.
As a leading employer you will recognise the importance of this initiative – you may not currently face a problem recruiting at this level, but many of your suppliers and partners do.
Be it informative summits for graduates, recruitment campaigns, awarding fields of excellence or even explaining the engineering career path, Technology Horizons provides a forum for debate.
