Buckinghamshire

The IET Buckinghamshire Network organises events and visits for IET members living in the Unitary Authorities of Buckinghamshire Council & Milton Keynes and Slough and its immediate neighbourhood.

Our events and visits cover a wide range of engineering and technology topics for engineers and interested members of the public. Even if you are not a member of the IET, you are welcome to attend our events.

Key Topics & Themes

The most popular events are those based on the “three Ws” of Wheels, Wings & Wailways. However, that does not stop us from covering IT, Broadcasting, the Urban Infrastructure, and the History of Engineering.

Events

Our lectures are a mix of on-line and face-to-face events. The face-to-face events are held either in High Wycombe at the main campus of The Buckinghamshire New University, or at a venue in Aylesbury and also at a venue in Milton Keynes.

We are always looking for ideas and suggestions for events and visits. If there is something you wish us to organise, or want us to help you to organise, then please get in touch.

Local Network Prize

The IET Buckinghamshire student prize is awarded each year to a graduate of Buckinghamshire New University.

The 2025 IET Buckinghamshire Local Network Prizes has been given to Quincy Fernandes, who graduated with a BSc (Hons) in Computing and Web Development, showed outstanding academic performance, at BUCKINGHAMSHIRE NEW UNIVERSITY.
Quincy demonstrated growth and determination during in completing her course. The ward was specifically given for working on an allocation programme for a local charity dining-evening for over 400 guests. Working closely with the local charity, Quincy adapted to changing goals, and very quickly developed a number of versions of the databases using live booking data.

The photograph, taken on Thursday 31st July 2025, shows Quincy receiving the award certificate and the prize of £250, from Andrew Dodd (the Events Co-ordinator for IET Bucks LN) together with Dr Kevin Maher (Deputy Head of the School of Creative & Digital Industries)
