Peterborough Young Engineers
Peterborough Young Engineers (PYE) comprises younger members from the IET, ICE and IMechE. Its aim is to encourage development and learning for anybody working towards accredited status as an Engineer. The PYE had a complete change of committee in April, accompanied by a fresh injection of enthusiasm. PYE will continue to organise the promotion of Engineering within the local community, specifically working with local SETpoint within local schools and organise lectures, tutorials and socials. More information can be found below.
