The European engineering educators podcast from SEFI brings you key insights into the minds of university researchers and practitioners who have built international reputations in the field of engineering education with knowledge and advice to share. Find out from Europe's largest network of engineering educators how engineering is evolving to address the challenges of the modern world, and develop your expertise.
Your hosts are Professor Neil Cooke (University of Birmingham) and Dr Natalie Wint (University College London).
We want to bring the frontiers of engineering education to you, regardless of your speciality, in an easy to digest format- you don't have to be an education researcher to benefit. You might be an academic teaching engineering or a related subject, an engineer who wants to keep up with the latest insights, some other professional in education, or even a student!
Based in Brussels, SEFI is the European society for engineering education, a non-profit organisation active since 1973, and Europe's largest network of engineering educators. Our mission is to improve engineering education and its image in society.

Attracting students to study engineering, and helping society understand what engineers do, are ongoing challenges within engineering education.
In this episode we spoke to Mariana Velho, Communication, Education and Outreach Manager for CERN openlab. Mariana draws upon her background in psychology, education and outreach, to manage various communication projects and campaigns, and manage stakeholder relationships.
Join Dr. Natalie Wint (University College London) and Dr. Neil Cooke (University of Birmingham) to learn about the use of science communication and outreach in encouraging students to study engineering.
