is calling for entries for its Innovation and Engineering Awards, which form part of the IKB Awards, a series of nationwide competitions to mark the bicentenary of the birth of the Victorian engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel, the University’s namesake and the 40th anniversary of the University’s Royal Charter, in 2006.

With four separate awards for Engineering, Innovation, Entrepreneurship and Young Companies, the IKB Awards offer an opportunity for young people to take their ideas to the next level.

The awards will showcase science, engineering and technology innovation, rewarding those who come up with ideas to benefit society or improve the modern world.

The competition offers more than cash prizes and a winning title – it will provide winners with mentoring and advice on how to develop their ideas from conception to commercialisation.

In addition, all winners will be invited to a prestigious black-tie awards dinner at the Science Museum, London, in April, 2006.
