About GEEP

The Windsor Fellowship is delighted to be partnering again with The Royal Academy of Engineering to deliver their award-winning GEEP programme.

This UK-wide programme, now in its 8th year, aims to increase the transition of UK engineering graduates from diverse backgrounds and under-represented groups into engineering employment.

GEEP Partners commit to building a truly diverse engineering workforce across the UK. They are champions for equality, diversity and inclusion, not only through GEEP but in the policies, practice, outcomes, and advocacy embedded in their companies. GEEP 2022/23 Company Partners include: Amey, Atelier Ten Ltd, bp, chapmanbdsp, Fugro, National Grid, Rolls-Royce, Two Sigma, wluper and WSP.

The programme is also supported by the Association for Black and Minority Ethnic Engineers (AFBE-UK), the Women’s Engineering Society (WES) and the Engineering Council.
