Innovators of all ages gathered at the prestigious Primary Engineer MacRobert Medal Award Ceremony in Glasgow this week, celebrating the collaborative achievements of school pupils, university students, and engineers. Hosted at the stunning Barony Hall, the event showcased cutting-edge prototypes developed from young students’ imaginative engineering ideas.
The Primary Engineer MacRobert Medal is a collaboration between The MacRobert Trust and Primary Engineer, with support from The WEIR Group PLC, and the awards highlight the culmination of the Leaders Award competition. This program challenges pupils aged 3–19 to answer the question: “If you were an engineer, what would you do?” Selected ideas are brought to life by ProtoTeams—collaborations between students, engineers, and industry partners—turning school pupils ideas into working prototypes.
This year, 10 ProtoTeams were honoured with Bronze, Silver, and Gold Medals, recognizing their ingenuity and collaboration.
