Ingenious is a grant scheme for creative public engagement with engineering projects. If you have an imaginative idea that helps engineers to communicate their expertise and passion for engineering to a wider audience - we want to hear from you. You could be an engineer interested in running your own project, or a science and engineering communicator keen to explore ways to provide public engagement training and opportunities. We are also keen to receive project proposals that aim to encourage deeper discussions between engineers and the wider public about the implications of engineering for society (for example, cultural and ethical impacts). Funding from £3,000 to £30,000 is available for projects that meet the criteria of the two funding streams: Public Engagement Grants and Public Engagement Fellowships. The closing date for the next round of Ingenious is 29th October 2010.
