Practical Engineering Education Conference 2024

Wait, what! The Practical Engineering Education Conference 2024 (PEE24) is open for registrations. Where does time go?*


The first Practical Engineering Education conference took place in 2021, and welcomed delegates from 20 Universities. The conference has grown in impact and prestige since, and its third iteration promises an incredible line up of keynote speakers, including Professor Claire Lucas from King’s College London, who will be revolutionising engineering pedagogy, and Dr Brett A. Becker from University College Dublin, who will explore the transformative potential of generative AI in engineering education. The conference will take place on the 2nd and 3rd of July at it's birth place in The University of Sheffield's Diamond Building and the programme for PEE24 is stacked with goodness. The conference will be a place to spark fresh ideas, and to ignite new approaches to practical teaching and inspire others.

Conferences are the best way to connect with a vibrant community, and to share your passion for hands-on learning with like-minded peers. They are places to develop new collaborations and to shape the future by contributing to building curriculum that ignite lifelong passion for real-world engineering.

At PEE24, there will be plenty of opportunities to network with fellow educators and industry professionals. This year, there will be a Gala Dinner on the night of July 2nd, which promises to be a delightful evening of networking and fine dining at the prestigious INOX Dine restaurant.


Additionally, there will be high quality sponsors, including Didactic Services Ltd, GUNT, Matrix TSL, TecQuipment, Armfield, and Shimadzu. Their commitment to advancing engineering education ensures that PEE24 will be a valuable and enriching experience for all attendees.
