We’re proud to have hosted over 430 world-leading delegates at #EDUCON2025, who explored trends in engineering education, shared research and built collaborations.
Guess how many birds have pooed on me at #EduCon2025. This has in no way diminished my enjoyment of the event and will furnish my anecdotes repository quite nicely :)
A pull up banner thanking our sponsors which are as follows: Platinum Sponsors - MathWorks and Try Engineering, Gold Sponsor - Pearson, Sponsor - Abet and IOT Cloud World, Local Sponsors - QMUL and Visit London, Technical Sponsors - IEEE Education Society and IEEE Region 8.
A pull-up banner welcoming our delegates and letting them know that the 2025 theme is "Sustaining educational excellence in engineering - generative AI in enhancing critical thinking and active learning".
A mildly arty shot of the wooden floor in the anteroom to the Octagon at QMUL which has our Q logo inlaid in a lighter coloured wood. On top of it is a suitcase which has transported some of the stuff we need to put signs up and make sure no-one gets lost. There are also boxes of magazines to give out and some pull-up banners waiting to be unpacked and set up.
This is a large A2 posterboard in blue with the Educon 2025 colouring and logo branding etc and an A4 polypocket attached. There are several A4 pieces of paper in it and the first announces the next event in that room. Here is't room GC202 and the first event there is at 1pm and it will be a Workshop on "An engineering course through remote experimentation - an introduction to electric and electronic circuits." Once that event has finished the bit of paper is discarded and the one behind it says what the next event will be. These are positioned on a small easel outside the room. Very efficient.
Excited to welcoming delegates to a sold out #EduCon2025 ("The IEEE Global Engineering Education Conference (IEEE EDUCON)") from IEEE hosted at @qmul.ac.uk with fellow volunteers from @qmuleecs.bsky.social :) 2025.ieee-educon.org

On my way to the airport via Suburban Station, which I've never taken. A kind soul pointed out that you can't access the station thru the building but a stairwell across the street. Thanks Philly for the kindness and welcome at EduCon and on the street! #educon #educon2025

All ready for #educon2025 ...
excited to have the opportunity w @irasocol.bsky.social to facilitate a conversation at #educon2025 @clehmann.bsky.social “why would kids come to your school if they didn’t have to?” #edusky
