Design and Delivery of Large Engineering Projects: An Ideas Forum

June 3 - 4, 2024

Past

Please join the U.S. National Academy of Engineering, U.K. Royal Academy of Engineering, Canadian Academy of Engineering, and the Australian Academy of Technological Sciences and Engineering’s collaborative online ideas forum on the design and delivery of large engineering projects.

The forum will feature case experiences from engineering leaders who will discuss instances where large projects are impeded by other forces and provide perspectives on how to better engage with them. They will also consider implications for multinational projects and engineering education to prepare the workforce that will deal with design and deployment of megaprojects.
