WEC 2019 is co-hosted by Engineers Australia and the World Federation of Engineering Organisations.
WEC 2019 is a very important event as it is being held in the centenary year of Engineers Australia and will be a very important part of the celebrations to be held during 2019.
Engineers Australia is one of the largest professional associations for engineering in the world, representing all engineering disciplines and active in accreditation and setting international standards for engineering education. Engineers Australia is the National Member for Australia at the World Federation of Engineering Organisations (WFEO).
The World Federation of Engineering Organisations is the peak body for engineering institutions internationally, representing more than 90 countries and 20 million engineers around the world. This is the first time that Engineers Australia and WFEO will be co-hosting a convention in Australia.
The World Engineers Convention is held every four years and is the “Olympics of engineering’”. Delegates will have a unique opportunity to hear from experienced engineering leaders from around the world on a wide range of technical and leadership topics.
WEC 2019 will be an opportunity for WFEO and the global engineering community to celebrate the achievements of engineering for the benefit of the world, a key objective of WFEO.
