We need your help
With the pandemic and economic disruption, we have a couple of thousand
students in Perth who have completed their degree studies but are waiting to
graduate because they cannot get appropriate internships to complete their
course requirements. We also have many mid-career engineers laid off from
projects and even major companies.
LifeBridge is a voluntary, non-profit organisation I helped set up to bring
these people together with smaller businesses interested in helping out. The
idea is to build on engineering practice research at UWA to give the students a
head start in their careers. We will use this research to rapidly develop their
professional skills and employability under the guidance of volunteer
mid-career engineers. The aim is to get as many as possible working in small
project teams, developing ideas for local companies in Perth.
I need help from engineer volunteers (employed, looking for work themselves,
or retired and willing to help). In the process they will acquire new
professional capabilities that will make them more attractive for companies
hiring them as project opportunities emerge.
We at LifeBridge also need your help to pass the word out to students and
graduates looking for paid engineering work, particularly international
students who have a tough time finding internships.
