Engineering Open House Week is one of several initiatives that make up the IET鈥檚聽Engineer a Better World campaign, which encourages children to discover how exciting the world of Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) is and find out about the huge variety of creative and stimulating careers in modern engineering.
The IET aims to help young people aged 5-13 and their caregivers and teachers understand what it鈥檚 like to work as an engineer or technologist by working with a wide range of organisations across the UK, who open their doors to hold interactive exhibits, events, talks and workshops that encourage children to think differently about engineering and technology.
With the support from organisations across the country giving exclusive, behind the scenes access, children can see first-hand how engineering and technology are applied in a range of roles and jobs across different sectors and feel inspired about the breadth of creative and innovative careers on offer.
Dr Daniel Roberts, engagement lead and lecturer in Electronic Engineering at 香港六合彩挂牌资料 said,
鈥淭his event is all about sparking that initial interest in engineering by offering children and their parents an opportunity to take a look behind the scenes at the university and take part in some fun activities which will demonstrate the sheer breath of careers possible in modern engineering.鈥
Rebecca Gillick, External Communications Manager at the IET, said:
鈥淔rom the music you listen to and the phone in your hand, to the clean water you drink and the innovations that are helping to restore our oceans, engineering and technology are at the heart of everything.
鈥淲hether young people are into sports, music, fashion, flying, healthcare, or improving our climate, we want them to know that there鈥檚 a place in engineering and technology for them and Engineering Open House Week is all about showing young people just how diverse and incredible the world of STEM really is.鈥
