Tomorrow’s Engineers Week 2026 takes place from 9 to 13 November, celebrating the people, ideas and innovations shaping our future and encouraging more young people to consider a career in engineering.

This year's theme, ‘Shape our Future’, is all about showing young people how engineering and technology can help tackle the real-world challenges they care about. From creating a more sustainable world to developing new technologies, engineering offers exciting opportunities to make a difference.

At Enginuity, we're passionate about helping people discover those opportunities. And with a range of free tools and resources available on our website, there are plenty of ways to get started.

Discover what engineering has to offer

Whether you're a young person curious about engineering, a teacher looking for classroom inspiration or someone considering a career change, our free resources can help you explore the possibilities.

You can:

  • Discover different career paths: Our Role Explorer gives an insight into the wide range of roles across engineering and manufacturing, including the skills and knowledge needed for each.
  • Explore transferable skills: Skills Comparator helps people understand how their existing technical skills could transfer into different roles.
  • Learn through interactive challenges: Skills Miner offers immersive engineering challenges that encourage creativity, problem-solving and practical thinking.
  • Inspire younger audiences: Enspire City introduces children aged 8-12 to how engineering can help create a more sustainable world, while our Girls Can Engineer interactive storybook encourages more girls to discover engineering from an early age.
  • Look ahead to future technologies: Our Future Skills Hub explores the technologies transforming engineering and manufacturing, and the skills that will be needed in the future.

These resources are just one way we're helping to make engineering more accessible and giving people the chance to see where their interests and skills could take them.

Bring engineering into the classroom

There are also plenty of opportunities for teachers and educators to get involved in Tomorrow's Engineers Week.

EngineeringUK has put together a collection of free classroom activities designed to connect STEM learning with the world around us. This year's design challenges encourage students to think creatively about issues such as keeping schools cool during extreme heat, using AI to support people and finding ways to reduce food waste.

The activities include teacher guidance, presentations and videos featuring engineering professionals, helping bring real-world challenges and career opportunities into the classroom.

Help shape the future

Tomorrow's Engineers Week is a great opportunity for everyone across engineering and technology to play a part in inspiring future talent. Whether you're sharing your experiences, introducing young people to different career paths or helping bring engineering to life in the classroom, every contribution can make a difference.
