- Smash stereotypes
- Be actively inclusive
- Work with others
- Listen, share and learn
There will be 2 plenaries as well as 6 sessions, running in a block of 3 repeated parallel sessions. This means you’ll be able to attend 2 sessions in the morning and 2 sessions in the afternoon.
Commenting on Tomorrow’s Engineers Live, Dr Hilary Leevers, Chief Executive of EngineeringUK, said: “The Tomorrow’s Engineers Live conference will be a fantastic opportunity to bring together those who care about the diversity and size of the engineering and tech workforce. I am excited to listen, share and learn how we can more effectively showcase modern engineering to young people as well as ways to work collaboratively to really make a difference.
“It’s only by working together, sharing our challenges, collective expertise and insight, that we can hope to inspire the diverse future workforce the country needs. Impactful outreach is vital to inspire future engineers, so let’s come together and commit to make a difference!”

Notes to Editors
The Tomorrow’s Engineers Code is a commitment to work towards common goals to increase the diversity and number of young people entering engineering careers. The Code was created by and is for the engineering community and has been brought to life through funding and in-kind support from a range of organisations including the founding Signatories Anglo American, the Department for Education and Shell. www.code.tomorrowsengineers.org.uk
Tomorrow’s Engineers brings together resources and evidence to support the engineering community in getting the most out of their engagement activity. It includes information and guidance on a range of topics curated from across the STEM community. Developed by EngineeringUK, the new website is for anyone who funds or delivers engineering engagement activities and is designed to help improve the engineering community’s collective impact. www.tomorrowsengineers.org.uk
EngineeringUK is a not-for-profit organisation that works in partnership with the engineering community to inspire tomorrow’s engineers. We lead the engagement programmes: The Big Bang, Robotics Challenge and Energy Quest and help schools bring STEM to life through real-world engineering via Neon. We bring engineering careers inspiration and resources together through Tomorrow’s Engineers and manage The Code, which drives change at scale to increase the number and diversity of young people choosing academic and vocational pathways into engineering. We base everything we do on evidence and share our insight widely. www.engineeringuk.com
