CIBSE Young Engineers Network (YEN)
Introduction
Young engineers are the future of the building services industry. We hope that with the support and experience of the wider CIBSE membership we can strengthen and unite the young engineering community locally, nationally and internationally. The young engineer’s network will provide a frame work for a range of activities that will inspire and support young engineers already in the industry and encourage interest from others outside the building services profession.
Our Mission
Provide a support network for young engineers within CIBSE YEN.
Promote building services to students and young engineers out with the industry.
Provide social networking opportunities for young engineers.
Provide a platform for knowledge exchange
Promote sustainability amongst young engineers and the built environment.
Encourage young engineers to engage more closely with our professional institution throughout their careers.
Inspire young engineers – guiding them towards a long term career in the building services profession.

UPCOMING EVENTS
It's that time of year again! Yes, you've guessed it, the CIBSE Young Engineers Network presents the 2nd Annual CIBSE Ceilidh (kâ'lç)!
After the success of last year's Gaelic dance, we have decided to turn this into an annual event and celebrate the second anniversary of YEN.
On Friday 23rd July, the Citygate Hotel will come alive with the distinctive sound of Celtic fiddles and lively dance.
The evening will begin with an amusing insight into the world of building services presented by Andrew Pettifer, ARUP Regional MEP Leader. Then, let our experienced dance caller guide you through the steps as we present the second CIBSE NSW Ceilidh dance. The night will feature live band, free whiskey tasting for as long as the whiskey lasts, 2 hours of an open bar and delicious canapes starting at 6:30pm, so get there on time to make the most of the free food and drink!
This night of dance, fun and frivolities is open to all CIBSE members and their guests.
