Why take part
Tomorrow's Engineers Week 2026 will take place from Monday 9 to Friday 13 November.
This year’s theme Shape our Future, will show young people how engineering and technology tackles the real-world issues they care about. And how they can help shape future solutions by taking up one of the many careers in the industry.
Through free hands-on activities, it will help students connect STEM to the world around them, and inspire them into considering a future in engineering and tech.
