Shannon Airport’s Departures Hall is set to be transformed once again this week as it hosts the Explore Engineering Showcase for the fifth consecutive year.
Taking place this Thursday (5th March), the event will bring together around 2,000 senior-cycle students, along with parents, teachers and guidance counsellors, to meet more than 60 engineering companies from across the Mid-West.
The showcase is all about connecting young people with real-world opportunities, from apprenticeships and further education to third-level pathways, and giving them a hands-on look at the innovation happening right on their doorstep.
For more on this, Alan Morrissey was joined by Technical Support Leader at Lufthansa Technik, David Purcell and the Chairperson of Explore Engineering, Eimear Brophy.
