CIE Newsletter - FOUNDERS' LECTURE TONIGHT and other news
Sue Parker
Dear Members and Friends,
A reminder for our Founders' Lecture TONIGHT, which is entitled " Advanced Gasification: A future proof energy platform", and gives information on a plant being constructed at Teesside.
The venue is our usual one, the Centuria Building, No 56 on the University Campus map ---> http://www.tees.ac.uk/docs/docrepo/about/CampusMap.pdf
We use the Sage car park, which is adjacent, and the barriers will be lowered to give us access at 5:15pm.

Riveting Stuff! - A celebration of engineering and innovation
Friday 31 May to Sunday 2 June at Tees Barrage.
This free event is organized by Stockton Borough Council, and full details can be found at ---> http://www.stockton.gov.uk/events/rivetingstuff
The CIE will be having a stand at this event, with our usual display boards. We need volunteers to be present with our display boards and hand out leaflets to the public, and explain what the CIE is and what we do. If you would like to spend a couple of hours doing this, your help would be much appreciated. Please e-mail me, and I can slot you in to the rota.
