Description

Speak Out for Engineering (SOfE) is a competition for young engineers designed to help develop verbal and visual communication in explaining technical mechanical engineering related subjects. 

Who can enter: 
The competition is open to any
1. IMechE Affiliate Member
2. IMechE Associate Member
3. Young Member of the Institution who has been professionally registered for ten years or less 

Subject: 
Competitors are to give an oral presentation on a mechanical engineering related subject (Presentation slides, materials or props can be used to support a presentation.) 

Competition Rules: 
-Competitors are required to prepare a written presentation summary of 100 words maximum on 10 Oct 2025, which should be sent to the organizer when notification is given of the intention to enter the competition. Failure to submit the synopsis may invalidate the entry. 

-Contestants must present in English.

-The presentation must be made by an individual regardless of whether the subject is part of a group technical project.

-Presentation materials (e.g., presentation slides, etc.) could be used.

Scoring: 
90% of the total marks are given for presentation with only 10% for technical content. This ensures that, while all presentations must have mechanical engineering content in its broadest sense (e.g. purpose, research, design, feasibility, and practicality), all presentations have the same chance of success despite varying degrees of technical content. 

Prize:
The champion and the first runner-up will be awarded with cash prize of £300 and £200 respectively and will have the chance to represent Hong Kong in the regional/international SOfE. 

All participants will receive a certificate and a souvenir.
