The Science and Engineering Showcase

Activities for booked school groups only
Secondary School children take part in the 2023 Science and Engineering Showcase

What is the Science and Engineering Showcase?

The aim of the Science and Engineering Showcase is to raise students’ aspirations in science and technology subjects and demonstrate how exciting STEM can be at A level and in higher education.
As well as having some fun, this is a unique opportunity for students to talk with current undergraduate students, PhD students and academics about what it’s like to study and work in STEM.
On the day we will take over our on-campus marquee and fill it with interactive exhibits from across our Faculty of Science and Engineering. Students can move freely between stands, spending time at the exhibits that are of interest to them.
Previous exhibits have ranged from Google Earth virtual reality to amazing invertebrates, arcade game technology to iceberg melting, bike powered recycling plastics to the Turing test, with something for everyone and plenty of opportunity for students to get hands on.
Students will also have a tour of our campus including our brand new engineering building facilities.
