Islamabad, Apr 22, 2025: In a strategic move to uplift the engineering youth of the country, the Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC) has announced the establishment of the National Forum for Young Engineers.
This landmark initiative is a progressive step to empower fresh engineering graduates and early-career professionals through a unified and dynamic platform.
The decision was finalized during the latest session of PEC’s Governing Body, with a core objective to create a structured, inclusive, and nationwide network for emerging engineers.
The forum aims to serve as a collaborative body where young minds from diverse engineering fields can come together, exchange ideas, and voice their concerns at a national level.
To ensure broad participation, the PEC has invited youth engineering associations from all disciplines and regions to join the forum.
This will help form a cohesive, countrywide alliance dedicated to promoting innovation, problem-solving, and professional excellence among the younger generation.
This platform is expected to be instrumental in addressing the real-world challenges faced by young engineers.
