Students from around Victoria have spent
the last couple of months working in teams on their
EngQuest projects. Entries included Big Books explaining
how engineers contribute to our community, and wheeled
vehicles powered by a renewable energy source. Judges
were impressed at the time and effort put into the entries,
seen in the quality of the students’ work.
The Melbourne metropolitan regional winners
for the EngQuest 2005 competition were announced on
