Outreach
Inspiring the engineers of the future...
Engineering is not just about ‘fixing things’ it is about understanding how, and why things work. Creativity and problem solving are at the heart of every industry and engineers are involved in all aspects of designing, building and testing new technologies and products.
Anything from rockets to mobile phones involves engineering – even hip replacements! By setting out the power and potential of engineering science to young people, we aim to spark a passion for discovery and inspire a lifelong interest in engineering.
Through our briefing days for teachers and careers advisers, demonstrations and talks in schools and colleges and public events, we are bringing our enthusiasm for engineering sciences to the wider community.
