INVITATION ONLY
The Graduate Engineering Engagement Programme (GEEP) aims to directly influence the engineering talent pipeline by addressing the challenge of underrepresentation and skills gaps in the profession. Since 2015 the programme has engaged over 2,000 engineering students from underrepresented backgrounds, supporting their transition into engineering employment. This programme is delivered with support from more than 50 engineering company partners and more than 70 universities.
This event marks the end of GEEP 2025/26 cycle, to celebrating the achievements of the current cohort and providing the last opportunity of the year them to connect with industry partner representatives to increase their networks.
