CSIC features in an online news programme, promoting a greater understanding of the role engineering plays in our society and economy.
The Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) has produced an online news programme in association with ITN Productions, highlighting the importance and relevance of research funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC).
The EPSRC is the UK's largest funder of research and training in engineering. As Britain faces a shortage of engineers, the programme looks at the need to exploit bright ideas as well as the importance of attracting more people into the profession.
The programme features some of CSIC's sensor technologies and PhD student Matt Wilcock and CSIC's Head, Professor Mair, talk about the relevance of CSIC's work to government and industry.
