2026 AUE Conference - Leeds University 9th - 10th September - 'Engineering the Future of University Estates'
9th - 10th September 2026
Location: Leeds University
Details of the 2026 AUE Conference are now confirmed.
It’s not just the sessions or the schedule, it’s the opportunity to step away from day-to-day challenges and connect with peers who understand the same pressures, priorities, and ambitions.
This year’s refreshed format has been designed with that in mind and brings together university estates engineering and sustainability professionals from across the sector under our conference theme 'Engineering the Future of University Estates'.
By creating a more focused programme and building in additional space to connect with our conference exhibitors, we are placing greater emphasis on the conversations, ideas, and collaborations that continue long after the conference ends.
