New Civil Engineer’s Graduate & Apprentice Awards are designed to recognise and reward the most inspiring civil engineering graduates and apprentices.

Launching on the 1 December 2025, the next generation of talent will be rewarded on Thursday 2 July at the NCE Awards in London, when three young professionals will be crowned in front of key industry figures. 

Whether you are a graduate, apprentice or a degree apprentice the awards will give you the chance to gain profile-raising experiences which could see you on our shortlist and interviewed face-to-face by our judging panel on industry leaders. 

Civil engineering is about more than just structures and infrastructure, it's about connecting and supporting communities. This year’s awards will be asking candidates to not just share their amazing career and work experiences so far, but also explore how the industry can create long term social value and inclusivity in design for the communities it serves.

Support your graduates and celebrate the next generation of civil engineers alongside the best firms in the civils sector.
