A career in engineering can take you pretty much anywhere, from the bottom of the ocean to the deep reaches of space.
Living and working in Birmingham
Located in the centre of England, Birmingham is the second most populous UK city, after London. Birmingham is also the ‘youngest’ city in Europe, with almost 40% of the population under 25. This young population may account for Birmingham’s sense of innovation and ambition. The city is home to internationally recognised research and development centres, such as the Institute for Global Innovation (IGI) and the Institute of Advanced Studies (IAS). History and culture buffs enjoy many attractions, including the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, museums and theatres, and the Library of Birmingham.
