Each year the Institution of Engineering and Technology (formerly the IEE) runs a “Present Around the World” competition, which in Australia takes the form of the “Australian Technical Presentation Prize” (ATPP) open to final year university students in disciplines within the scope of the IET. These include electrical, electronic, manufacturing and systems engineering and related sciences such as information technology and computing.

Each Australian State runs its own competition culminating in a State Final, with the winner proceeding to the National Final early in the following year (which is usually shortly after graduation). Later that year the National winner goes on to UK to compete in the World Final (the IET International Premium) and take part in an associated Younger Members Conference at that time.

The first National Final was held in Melbourne in 2002. It was again in Melbourne in 2003 but moved to Adelaide in 2004 where the winner was Kerrin Pine of South Australia who spoke on “Radio Direction Finding for Maritime Search & Rescue”. It moved to Perth in 2005 from where the winner, Tim Nelson again of South Australia who spoke on his robotic eye project “EyeSim”, went on to win the international event held in Birmingham UK in November 2005. Last year in Sydney the National winner was Kelly Poole of NSW whose topic was “Design of Zigbee systems: concept and implementation”, the gauging of student understanding in real time during lectures.

And now it’s Queensland’s turn. This year’s National Final will be held in Brisbane on Friday 30 March, the competition itself at the Novotel Hotel in the morning and the Presentation Dinner at Gianni’s Portside Restaurant in the evening. Details below, and all are encouraged to attend. Pre-registration for the Dinner is necessary, and the form for this is attached.

Also keep an eye on the National IET website for more information regarding this event.

Please note that these are IET National events, but the main organisation has been delegated to the IET Queensland Younger Members Section. As per the attachment, emailed returns are to be made to the YMS Chairman Tony Richardson. Also as per the attachment, any telephoned queries should be to Tony on 0424 578 224.

Tony says:

The IET ATPP is primarily a presentation skills competition. However, the topic should be relevant to IET endeavours and the speaker should target the presentation appropriately. Designing the latest gadgets and widgets is one thing; convincing people of their successful operation and commercial merit is another. The ATPP is a way for final year students enrolled in Engineering and Technology courses to test their skills in this area, so come along and support your future colleagues and fellow students.
