Career Bites - Digital Engineering

We were treated to a brilliant talk as part of our ‘Career Bites’ programme of informal careers talks for the 4^th Year upwards this week.

Shaun Stevens from EPS Water gave us a fascinating insight into the use of BIM (building information modelling) tools, virtual and augmented reality and 4D rehearsals in the design of EPS’s engineering solutions.

Shaun explained how this has transformed their design process and it is also facilitating far better customer engagement and operator visualisation. He made the whole thing come to life with a fantastic presentation including lots of design-phase animations and videos of the final construction phase in action.

The session ended with the opportunity to ‘play’ with some virtual reality goggles using pupils’ mobile phones.
