The School of Science operates several engagement programs for school students and adult learners across the Science discipline. Our activities have been developed to showcase STEM, skills and attributes needed to work in these fields, foster a passion for the discipline and highlight career opportunities. At times, we engage with other Schools within the university such as Medical and Health Sciences extending this to STEMM. We have several student associations who as subject ambassadors, mentors and tutors deliver these engagement activities.
