EAN Congress 2026: Evolution or revolution invites delegates to explore whether incremental change in engineering education is enough to make it fit-for-purpose in the face of significant global and sectoral challenges – or whether engineering education now demands something more radical. As global challenges intensify, disciplinary boundaries blur, and AI reshapes every profession, there is a broad consensus now that engineers of the 21st century must pair technical expertise with sustainability literacy, ethical awareness and an entrepreneurial mindset. This year’s EPC Congress explores what a truly “fit‑for‑purpose” engineering education looks like – one that harnesses AI while safeguarding against its risks, embraces interdisciplinary thinking, and expands the role of active and experiential pedagogies – and critically, how we can deliver this. Through provocative presentations and discussion, the congress will examine who engineering education serves and how institutions can reimagine their role in shaping future‑ready engineers.
The Developing Business Aware Academics (DBAA) team are co-hosting a researcher challenge event with Babcock on Monday 2nd March 2026, at the Innovation Hub in Exeter. Full details are here.
Babcock has identified 4 challenges that require expertise in Mechatronics, Physics, Engineering or Chemical Engineering. Researchers and PhD students with relevant expertise are welcome to attend the event. There is no cost to attend and lunch, alongside cakes from the exploding bakery, will be provided. The DBAA Team can cover transport costs for attending researchers.
At the event, researchers will get the opportunity to network with Babcock, and via facilitated round table discussions, explain how their research could help address Babcock’s given challenges. It is a great opportunity that could result in some very tangible outcomes.
