Every year, we work to break down barriers and open up opportunities in STEM for young people across the UK. Through our STEM Days, Courses, and Arkwright Engineering Scholarships, we’ve helped thousands of young people discover their potential.
We work with around 1,000 schools each year, reaching over 50,000 students through engaging, hands-on STEM activities. Our 20+ courses give more than 1,000 young people the chance to explore different engineering disciplines and gain insight into the many routes into an engineering career.
None of this would be possible without the support of over 100 of our partners, who share our mission to help young people of today become the change makers of tomorrow.
