As the Young SET Ambassadors programmes continue to grow we are delighted with the prospect of holding more celebration events for pupils, students, academic staff, teachers and their scientific, engineering and technology mentors than ever before.
We expect pupils to complete projects relating to the Young SET Ambassadors programmes and for them to produce a real live working model. We are playing a key role in helping to put the pupils’ work into an industrial context. We are also finding ways to recognise the crucial role played by teachers, mentors and parents in encouraging the enthusiasm of the pupils, who will hopefully go on to make SET choices in their future careers.
Young SET Ambassadors is designed to raise awareness amongst young people of the possibilities and options offered by SET at university and in the work place, and inspire them towards the necessary subject choices.
Apart from inspiring the future young scientists, engineers and technologists, Young SET Ambassadors offer benefits to your school, university, company and mentors and you can make a real difference by participating in the programme.
