IMechE has a clear understanding of the challenges and opportunities ahead, along with a vision for the future. We're communicating this through our key themes, which reflect the issues most relevant to society and our members: energy, environment, transport and education.

Energy

We must share knowledge, modify behaviour and use technology to reduce demand for resources and create sustainable sources of supply.

We must adapt our technology and infrastructure to cope with climate change and minimise the pollution and waste that contribute to global warming.

Travel must be made cleaner, safer and easier.

We must inspire young people to become the engineers of the future. We will help prepare engineers to respond to society’s challenges and support their development.
