Welcome

Engineering Aid Australia (EAA) is a charitable organisation whose principal aim is to encourage Indigenous young Australians to consider a career as a professional Engineer.

EAA conducts two annual summer schools (to date the summer schools have been conducted in association with the Engineering Faculties of University of New South Wales, Newcastle University, Curtin University and the University of Sydney).

EAA also seeks to assist Indigenous young Australians who attend the summer schools by:

  • providing them with financial assistance to help them complete their secondary education and undertake engineering or related courses at University, and
  • helping them find work experience and career opportunities with engineering companies and firms. For these purposes EAA seeks donations from parties who share the same vision.
