Members of the Murang'a University of Technology Engineering Students Association (MUTESA) in collaboration with the Institution of Engineers of Kenya (IEK) central branch have highlighted the importance of shaping a sustainable future through engineering as they marked World Engineering Day.

The students marked World Engineering Day by engaging in a general clean-up exercise around Murang'a town and the university as they celebrated the achievements of engineers around the world.

Speaking to the press, Caroline Kwamboka, the MUTESA president, explained that the students would be honouring the Engineering Day not only by cleaning the environment but also by hosting career talks and conducting industrial visits.

She urged young women to embrace careers in the engineering sector, as it is manageable and ladies can perform well just like the men. "All engineering students have to prove themselves and do their best because engineering is a profession that is not only about innovation in technology but also about humanity," Kwamboka said.
