Education

The Academy is committed to the support of engineering education from the sixth form through to postgraduate level and continuing professional development. We run a wide variety of education schemes and awards.

  • The Best Programme

    A broad range of pre-university and undergraduate schemes aimed at the engineers of tomorrow. This programme is supported in particular by the Gatsby Charitable Foundation.

  • Schemes for GCSE and A-level students

    Work experience, gap year training, university tasters, practical problem-solving.

  • Schemes for undergraduates

    Industrial and business experience, personal development courses, funding for projects.

  • Schemes for professional engineers

    Conference grants, personal development training, funding for university study and business school courses, industrial secondments.

  • Visiting Professors' Schemes

    Industry–academia links aimed at producing teaching materials based on case studies: the two schemes in the programme cover the principles of engineering design and design for sustainable development.

  • The National Engineering Programme

    The National Engineering Programme works in primary, secondary and higher engineering education.

  • Shape the Future

    This campaign is about the way the engineering community can give young people the opportunity to do ‘one more thing’, engaging in established hands-on science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) activities. It also aims to bring coherence to the many STEM activities and schemes already in existence, thereby increasing their impact and effectiveness.

  • The Biotechnology Engineering Initiative

    Sainsbury Management Fellowships in the Life Sciences and the Biotechnology Young Entrepreneurs Scheme.

  • Education links
