We can give advice and guidance if you're wondering what subjects to study at school, college or university.
We also provide resources and support for teachers, and other people looking to promote civil engineering.
ICE Yorkshire and Humber has a wide range of materials for people living in the region and working with local schools and colleges.
Looking for inspiring resources to use in school?
We have a range of multimedia resources for teachers, careers advisers, parents, and volunteer ICE ambassadors.
So if you want an activity for a class or club – something hands-on, that's tried and tested – you'll find it here. We also have PowerPoint presentations, videos, career information and useful links to lots more.
ICE also works with Tomorrow's Engineers, which provides clear information on careers in engineering.
The Tomorrow's Engineers careers materials:
- Are mainly aimed 11 to 14-year-olds
- Show what young people can achieve by studying maths and physics
- Tell you about the huge range of careers available in engineering
- Explain the different ways to get an engineering career
In your region
Yorkshire and Humber's 'Ambassadors' have been taking part in events across the region to encourage people of all ages to find out more about engineering.
Recently ambassadors have taken part in delivering the giant tetrahedron activity to 27 teachers from across the country at the National STEM Learning Centre in York.
Andy Magee, from the ICE Yorkshire and Humber Regional Education Team also visited his old primary school, Hoyle Court in Bradford, to deliver the Skyscraper Challenge to pupils.
Visitors were also challenged to build part of the team's giant tetrahedron.

What do you need to do to become a civil engineer?
If you're interested in a university or college course in civil engineering, it's important to make sure that the course you choose is 'accredited'. This means that it meets the Engineering Council's quality and curriculum standards.
Having accredited academic qualifications will make it easier for you to become professionally qualified as a chartered engineer (CEng), incorporated engineer (IEng), or engineering technician (EngTech).
Use our course search to find accredited courses throughout the UK.
