Connecting policymakers with the nation’s leading engineers
As the UK’s national academy for engineering and technology, the Royal Academy of Engineering provides progressive leadership for engineering and technology, and independent expert advice to government in the UK and beyond.
Twice a year the Academy selects exceptional policymakers to become Policy Fellows. This intensive professional development programme builds stronger connections between policymakers and the technical community in support of better evidence-based policymaking.
We welcome applications from policymakers who have a variety of insights, expertise and backgrounds from across the policy community.
Who should apply?
Successful Policy Fellows are senior civil servants or public servants with responsibility for policy or service design in any sector.
The Academy is committed to diversity and inclusion, and we welcome applications from across the policy community, from a range of backgrounds, for example: economics, politics, sociology, planning, digital, science or engineering.
