Engineering Village
Empowering engineers to solve the world’s greatest challenges
Informed research powers tomorrow’s engineering innovations. Engineering Village is a search and discovery platform that provides the high-quality content, data and intelligence needed to answer real-life engineering questions. On Engineering Village, impactful research is made easy with filters tailored to the needs of world-class engineers.
In both academia and the industry sector, engineering researchers value Engineering Village’s customized interface. Use it to:
Find answers
Explore content curated for engineers, from peer-reviewed articles and conference proceedings to standards and reliable data to learn from the findings of leading engineers worldwide
Make an impact
Uncover opportunities for technology transfer and scale-up of new technologies into further research and practice
The world needs engineers equipped for impact
Engineering Village helps equip the engineers of tomorrow. At Queensland University of Technology (QUT), Engineering Village enables “deep searching” skills that boost employment options for STEM graduates.

It all starts in the classroom
We are committed to supporting your teaching and learning goals through our Elsevier Engineering portfolio.
Preprints now available
We are excited to announce preprints as a new document type available on Engineering Village. Over 800,000 open access preprints from arXiv (from 2017 onwards) and SSRN are now findable within the Compendex database, with more coming soon. Preprints can be included or excluded from search by using the “Document Type” filter (which also contains other document types such as standards, conference proceedings etc).
Databases in Engineering Village
Engineering Village covers high-quality, relevant and cross-disciplinary content sourced from a series of databases including our flagship database, Compendex. All databases within Engineering Village are maintained regularly and curated for engineers’ needs.
Explore databases
Standards are indexed in Compendex with controlled vocabulary, allowing for more precise discoverability than keyword searching alone. (…) If a library also subscribes to full text standards through a compatible vendor platform (e.g., ASTM Compass, IEEE Xplore), there is one-click access to full-text documents.
