One month in the life of Harper Engineers!

5 November 2025

Engineering undergraduate courses manager, James Croxford, summarises October's activities.

So... October happened! ??

- Welcomed new students.

- Started building autonomous drones with first years.

- Our second years are figuring out how to land those autonomous drones on a moving autonomous platform.

- Fourth years are already bringing value to a whole host of companies through real industry problems (huge thanks to JLR, CLAAS, Epwin Window Systems, Grainger & Worrall, JCB, MagrowTec, UPP Freya, Galebreaker, TAFE TRACTORS and Landpower for the opportunities)

- We've kicked off our 'industry engagement' sessions with guest speakers including Charles Nicklin from The Institution of Agricultural Engineers and Mandy Thompson from ABP UK (more to follow!)

- An open day for prospective future students (with our next on Saturday November 8)

- And lots of other stuff I've probably forgotten!

Here's to November - there's lots of new developments in the pipeline!
