  6. IOM3 Investigates...the art of Viva Talbot with Dr Joan Heggie

    26 maart 2026 · 1 uur 5 min

    Afspelen
    In this episode, Head of Design Lara Collins speaks with Dr Joan Heggie, historian, researcher and curator of the 2025 exhibition Viva Talbot: Steelmaking, to explore the life, craft and legacy of a woman who captured the steel industry with exceptional technical precision. Lees meer

    The discussion traces Talbot’s unconventional route into wood engraving, her family ties to ironmaster Benjamin Talbot, and how she gained access to blast furnaces, quarries and mines at a time when industrial spaces were overwhelmingly male.. Joan explains how Talbot documented every stage of steelmaking - from mining raw materials to rolling finished plate - and why the 15 engravings in the IOM3 collections remain such rare examples of industrial woodcut work.

    The conversation also looks at the wider arc of Talbot’s life: her early sketchbooks and diaries, her collaborations and influences, her extensive travels, and her transition from artist to Lady Nussey of Rushwood Hall. Joan reflects on the challenges of conserving fragile prints, the gaps that still remain in Talbot’s biography, and her ongoing project to compile a comprehensive catalogue raisonné.

  7. IOM3 Investigates...Mythbusting Chartership

    24 februari 2026 · 54 min

    Afspelen
    Chartership plays a central role in upholding professional standards, but what does it mean in practice today - and what stops people from pursuing it? In this discussion, our Director of Membership & Professional Standards Paul Skerry (CEng FICE FCInstCES FIMMM) talks to Sarah West (Head of Engagement & Policy, Science Council), Phil Underwood (CMktr, Engagement Manager, Society for the Environment), and Lucy Byrne (Professional Standards Manager, Engineering Council). They explore the real barriers individuals face on the path to professional registration, from misconceptions about qualifications and career routes to a lack of confidence, inconsistent support, and the complexities of working across multiple organisations. Lees meer

    The conversation also looks at how mentors can better support candidates, how institutions can open clearer pathways for those without traditional academic backgrounds, and where messaging should focus: personal benefits, professional values, or public responsibility. Against the backdrop of public failures such as Horizon and Grenfell, the speakers reflect on the relevance of codes of conduct, whistleblowing, HRB requirements and the growing emphasis on accountability. They also consider how chartership aligns with modern industrial strategy, why employers benefit from registered professionals, and how to broaden participation so that chartership is truly accessible to all.

    Recorded as a webinar in September 2025 Lees meer

    Artificial Intelligence is widely promoted as transformative, but how much of this promise holds true for geotechnical engineering?

    In this webinar recording, Dr Angus Maxwell and Dr Rich Laver from Maxwell GeoSystems Ltd explore where AI is already delivering practical benefits in ground engineering, where expectations may be overstated, and how reliable current applications really are. What is meant by AI in an engineering context? Where could or should it be applied? Drawing on information from across the geotechnical community, the speakers discuss how perceptions of AI vary between owners, consultants and contractors, and where different groups see genuine value. Angus and Rich also share insights from their current research, including the use of large language models to improve interaction with complex engineering systems, and machine learning approaches that draw on decades of geotechnical data to improve forecasting, decision‑making and ground risk management.

    00:51 Is it just the UK that is struggling with mining and education, or is it everywhere?
    00:54 I learned my skills during the first 10 years of my work at Rio Tinto. People aren’t learning in a course of learning very little and most of what you learn is on the job. Is this a potential solution to some of the companies that cut staff and really if they want the next generation of experienced people you need to fill the capability early on?
    00:57 Exeter University have just announced the re-opening of the Camborne School of Mines Undergraduate Mining Degree, but they only have two applicants. In the 80s, every major mining company offered scholarships. How can we get more young people into mining?
    00:58 I had personal conversations with people that have been on the precipice of leaving the industry. Sometimes you hear on LinkedIn various people or women talking about why they have gone out of the industry because they felt disrespected, but some people stick it for various reasons. I am curious if you have any data or if there are any stories as to how we can better sh…

  15. IOM3 Investigates...Unearthing Stories: Authors discuss the mining and materials supply chain

    7 augustus 2025 · 1 uur

    Afspelen
    Historically, some industrial activities have elicited strong views from the public. Finding the balance between interest and accessibility without bias can be a challenge. Understandably, many companies are nervous of lighting the touchpaper of public opinion and over time this reticence about sharing the details of industrial processes can lead to a lack of public understanding about how things are made. Lees meer

    There are thousands of people doing jobs that aren't well known, digging up rocks at unprecedented scales all over the world. An increasingly complex supply chain with countless processes convert natural resources into something useful. With critical minerals ever more in the headlines, it is critical that the public understand what it takes to produce the goods and services that support their modern lifestyles, as well as the multitude of roles and wealth of expertise that are the backbone of the industries. Good communication can ignite the interest of the next generation, who are going to be needed as part of the growing workforce in these sectors.

    Joining Alex Brinded to discuss how this can best be achieved are:

    Ed Conway HonFIMMM – author of the book Material World and Economics Editor at Sky News

    Catherine Lalut - author of the children’s book series, The Mine that Fell Asleep, Project Manager at Fortescue - Mine Planning; Founder & President of Women in Mining & Engineering Western Australia, and CEO & Co-founder of the Australia-Latin America Mining & Energy Alliance.

  29. IOM3 Investigates... CBAM

    29 mei 2024 · 51 min

    Afspelen
    In this episode, Colin Church discusses the carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM) with Anushka Devaser and Gyles Scott-Hayward from WSP. They explain that CBAM is a way to put a fair price on carbon emitted during the production of carbon-intensive goods, with the aim of encouraging cleaner industrial production in non-EU exporting countries and preventing carbon leakage. The EU CBAM covers goods such as steel, aluminium, electricity, iron, cement, fertilizers, and hydrogen. The UK is planning to introduce its own CBAM from 2027 and a consultation is currently running. Lees meer

    Greenwashing is a growing issue, with regulatory bodies looking to impose penalties for future breaches and stricter regulation. How can industry communicate the progress they are making on targets such as reducing emissions or resource usage without falling foul of potential problems? How can a buyer know what different terms mean?
    To delve deeper and try to clarify matters, we spoke to Denise Mathieson – senior Manager in Sustainability and External Affairs at circular packaging provider Faerch Group, Chris McDonald – Chief Executive Officer of the UK Materials Processing Institute and Richard Reichman – a lawyer with London-based BCL Solicitors specialising in regulatory investigations, with experience of ESG compliance cases.
