This one-hour masterclass is aimed at providing younger students with an insight into the world of engineering. Students will deepen their understanding of the breadth of specialisation and career opportunities (e.g., chemical, mechanical, biomedical), and develop their knowledge of the ways in which engineers have improved the world such as democratised low-cost travel, healthcare, housing and digital technology.

If notified in advance this talk can be adapted to focus specifically on one or more engineering specialisms to suit the needs/interests of your students.
