In the latest edition of ATSE’s IMPACT magazine, you’ll find examples of the innovative thinking and technological science and engineering excellence helping us to respond to the challenges we face.

Through the theme of Australia’s competitive advantage – Becoming an innovation nation, this issue highlights the technological innovations needed to keep delivering the incredible impact our Academy is known for.

Through pieces from the Chief Scientist and the Chairs of the Diversity in STEM and Universities Accord Reviews, we learn about the policy opportunities in front of us right now in order to take advantage of our national potential.

This issue also celebrates the new Fellows elected to the Academy in 2023, along with the Award winners announced at the annual ATSE Awards Gala Dinner in October. The fantastic, diverse group of featured individuals show us how change and discovery is happening all around us across a huge number of fields.

Impact highlights the concrete ways that we are discovering solutions to our national priorities, from improving the construction of rail infrastructure to the next generation of solar panels, artificial intelligence opportunities, integrated health management and robotics.
