Stem Careers Event
Maths, Science, Engineering and Technology

St George's school is providing a chance for students to come along to listen, and to talk to, representatives from universities and employers about opportunities in maths, science and engineering.

The Upper 5 will be attending the seminars during the morning, but there has been time allocated for all girls over the lunch hour in Upper 4 to Upper 6 to question the visitors or just collect information. This is an excellent opportunity for all students to widen their awareness of the huge range of courses and careers open to them.

Agenda

10.45am - 11.45am

Upper 5 students will be shown to the Main Hall and listen to four 10-15 minute presentations: 

  • Fiona Fairhurst: Shell UK
  • Katharine Houston: University of Glasgow School of Engineering
  • Lynsey Tweedlie: Scottish Water
  • Patricia Hart: The Roslin Institute

11.45am - 12.05pm

Time is allocated for the students to ask questions of the speakers and reps and circulate round the stands, including the speakers, plus those from Napier University, Etrust, Wolfson, Heriot Watt and SAC.
