IET Scotland North Network

IET Local Networks are managed by groups of volunteers. Networks organise events to raise awareness of science, engineering and technology in their local area and promote membership of the IET. All Network events are open to the public and most are free of charge.

The Scotland North Committee organise events in Aberdeen, Dundee, Elgin, Inverness, Perth, Thurso, Orkney, Shetland, Stornoway, Fort William and (soon) in St Andrews. These events cover a range of engineering, management and general interest.
