The new online video series showcases the perspectives of Fluke's industrial and electrical test engineers on the role engineers play in ensuring sustainability, the importance and impact of engineering in the modern world, and the future of industry. The series also features personal stories explaining what inspired each engineer to enter the industry, aiming to inspire future generations to consider an engineering career.
Paul Feenstra, Vice President of EMEA at Fluke, states: “We are very proud to recognize the invaluable contribution of engineers in changing our world for the better. As part of World Engineering Day, we wanted to celebrate engineering innovation by sharing the voices of Fluke’s own engineering team. Every day, engineers continue the great work of their predecessors, finding new solutions to overcome critical challenges and safeguard our future. Engineers deserve more credit than the single day dedicated to them.”
Rick Rodriguez, a Mechanical Hardware Engineer at Fluke, recently comforted his young son after the boy expressed concern about the future of the world, stating, "There are a lot of very creative and passionate people out there right now, dealing with problems, and the one taking center stage is the engineer."
Han Tran, an Electrical Engineer and Industrial Applications Specialist at Fluke, echoed this sentiment. For Han, the goal of celebrating World Engineering Day is "to ensure that younger engineers see that it's possible for people who aren't always seen in engineering to be part of it."
A global celebration of engineers and engineering,
