To download the recording and presentation slides\, please complete the form below.\n \nPlease note: this is a free\, live stream of the physical seminar event being held in Midrand\, South Africa. This is not a webinar. \nMeet an Australian Engineering Specialist in Midrand\nJoin the Engineering Institute of Technology live and online at an engineering seminar in Midrand on Friday 25th March. \nDr. Steve Mackay\, EIT’s Dean of Engineering\, will present an interactive seminar on ‘Practical Engineering for the Future – using Automation and Renewables as the Key Drivers.’ He will detail ways to apply sustainability and automation to your engineering projects – in the areas of electrical\, mechanical\, civil\, and industrial automation engineering – as applied to such diverse areas as mining\, infrastructure\, construction\, defense\, energy\, water\, transport\, medical\, manufacturing\, and consultancy. \nSteve will highlight how the significant growth in climate change engineering\, the drive for sustainability\, cost efficiencies\, and automation may impact your work. \nIn a lively debate\, he will call on you (and your fellow attendees) to share your perspective on the future of engineering in South Africa. \nFinally – in small groups – you will be tasked with outlining your team’s approach to a practical engineering project that will be given to you. \nAs Lee Lacocco\, an American engineer says: “We are continually faced by great opportunities brilliantly disguised as insoluble problems.” \nJudging by our past events\, this is a must-attend event for engineering professionals and aspiring engineers alike. It will be an opportunity to hear from a respected industry leader and to network with like-minded people – many of whom will have experience in automation and renewables. \nReserve your spot at this free seminar today! \n\nThe seminar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterwards. \n\nAbout Dr. Steve Mackay \nSteve Mackay Ph.D.\, a Chartered Professional Electrical\, Chemical and Mechanical Engineer\, has over 40 years of industry experience in Australia\, Europe\, Africa and North America. He has delivered training and education to 18\,000 engineers and technicians throughout the world. \nAgenda \n1. Welcome to you. \n2. A discussion: Practical Engineering for the Future \n3.
