The new partnership will highlight the critical role that science, engineering and technology play in the BOA's assistance to athletes' participation, and success, in the Olympics.
This ranges from the design of the latest composite carbon-fibre racing bikes, the assessment of swimmers' stroke velocity and monitoring of extreme physical performance.
As the organisation responsible for promoting science, engineering and technology in the UK, the ETB is the first body of its kind to be recognised as an official partner of the BOA.
Commented Alan Clark, chief executive of the Engineering and Technology Board: "It is critical to Britain's future as a manufacturing and wealth creating nation that more young people pursue careers in science, engineering and technology.
"For example British science and engineering professionals are providing what could be the difference between Gold and Silver medals for the GB Cycling team with the 'Athens Bike'. The ETB's 'Engineering in the Olympics' campaign aims to encourage and inspire a new generation of engineers by championing the innovative and dynamic opportunities that this sector can offer."
The British Olympic Association has signed a strategic deal with the Engineering Technology Board worth an estimated £1million.
