Engineers Week is a week-long programme of nationwide events with the aim of celebrating the world of engineering in Ireland. The week aims to create a positive awareness and spark enthusiasm about the engineering profession to people of all ages, especially students and their teachers and parents. www.engineersweek.ie

Shannon continues to contribute enormously to a rich skill pool of aircraft engineers locally and internationally. To inspire and encourage the next generation of aircraft engineers Lufthansa Technik Shannon Ltd. is proud to be Principal Sponsors of this event, now for the fifth year successively.

The event gives 300 local children from local primary and secondary schools a great opportunity to attend a day of Aviation Engineering discovery at Atlantic AirVenture Aviation Centre. The event will run on 6th and 7th March and is co-hosted by Royal Aeronautical Society’s ‘Cool Aeronautics’ team, who will travel from London HQ to attend the event.
