Our partners
The sheer size and diversity of engineering in the UK means that no one professional body can represent the whole sector.
A number of different organisations with different leadership roles in the professional engineering community work together to advance engineering in the UK.
- The Engineering Council is the regulatory body for the UK engineering profession
- The Royal Academy of Engineering advances and promotes excellence in engineering
- EngineeringUK promotes engineering and engineering careers
- Professional engineering institutions promote and advance specific engineering disciplines, including upholding professional codes of conduct.
Leaders from across these organisations meet regularly as the Professional Engineering Committee.
