The impact of engineering to socio economic development of the country​

Engineers help to develop the physical infrastructure we all rely on – transport networks, roads, bridges, water and energy supplies, and waste management. We also have them to thank for our digital infrastructure – communications and navigation networks that are part and parcel of urban life. Engineers play a huge role in healthcare and food, and in manufacturing and research.

And by building this infrastructure, engineering has had a much wider and more lasting impact – it has helped to fuel economic growth. Well-built housing and sanitation improves the quality of life of all residents. Good transport links make it easier for businesses to trade their goods, and enables the workforce to be more mobile. High-speed internet can boost productivity, improve efficiencies, and help an organization to look beyond its local or national borders… the list is endless.
