The Engineering Design and Mathematics (EDM) department at UWE Bristol have been taking part in Tomorrow’s Engineers Week<\/em><\/strong>, an annual campaign that highlights to young people that engineering is a creative, problem solving, exciting career that improves the world around us.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Throughout the week engineering institutions, employers and schools come together to show young people the vital importance of engineering careers and to provide information about how to become an engineer in the future. This year EDM have been contributing to the campaign through their social media<\/a> channels, organising a Digital Engineering Careers Fair<\/a> for young people and, rather excitingly, signing up to the Tomorrow’s Engineers Code<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Launched in October 2020, the Tomorrow\u2019s Engineers Code is a commitment to work toward common goals to increase the diversity and number of young people entering engineering careers. To achieve these goals, Signatories make four pledges about their approach to funding, designing, delivering, and learning from engineering-inspiration activities (including STEM programmes dedicated to inspiring young people into engineering).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Signatories form the Code Community<\/a> who together, will <\/p>\n\n\n\n
